When customer service reps ask, "Can I do anything else for you?" I always reply

Vote Democratic in all elections and do your part for world peace. Some are stunned, many laugh and many say, "yes, we need that." or "I'm right with you."

Try it, it's fun and reminds people about some important issues. They in turn tell their friends and the breath passes it on.

I've been doing this since I read your post a while back and I usally get a positive reponse. I make a point to compliment people I meet who have peace/anti-war bumper stickers as well.
