20. We would definitely need to organize
and be in it for the long haul.

One problem is that we are so spread out here in America and many don't have the money to travel to Washington to protest for just one day. Maybe start organizing in every state and plan on protesting at each states' capitals every single day.

I think a good majority Americans (left & right) are frustrated with corrupt politicians/corporations/banksters/Wall Street, two neverending wars, outsourcing, high unemployment w/ no end in sight, low wages, rising costs, rampant foreclosures, the destruction of the middle class while obscene amounts of money are thrown into the bottomless pit of the wealthy/corporations. I don't think it would be very difficult at all to organize protests around these issues because they're not left/right issues. At this point it's getting to be a matter of self-preservation for the majority of Americans.
