One of the results of the Tea Parties is more average Joes are getting involved with politics. People are concerned with the huge increase in spending by the federal government.
I like Instapundit's idea on a way for people to be more involved:
"Another suggestion: show up at your Congressman's local town meetings with a half dozen friends and ask tough questions. He or she will notice or at least be uncomfortable."
(Glenn is building on his wife's post about this topic.)
I wonder how many views on Youtube it would take before a politician would sit up and take notice. Does a mayor of an average size city worry about a hundred views, or does it take more? Would a congressman notice a thousand views? Or would it take more?
I'll have to check out when my congressman will be holding town meetings next.
