I've kinda had it with all of the BS

72. Form a local Democratic Club.

In the 1960s, young, active California Democrats caused a reformation of sorts in the Democratic Party of California that gave a lot more clout to local clubs and their members. If your state Democratic Party is not organized, at least in part, from the grass-roots up, change it.

Get together with your liberal friends from the ACLU/Common Cause/ Move-
On/Democracy for America, whatever, and join with other local Democrats in other areas of your state to demand change in the way your state party is organized.

Act fast. See if you can get some of the 1960s generation of California Democrats to tell you how they did it.

Try. It's great to be active in the ACLU, etc. I've done that too. But the ACLU does not nominate the candidates that run as Democrats and write the laws. You need to be in the grass-roots of the party to even get to know you representatives, senators, etc. Just get active. It isn't enough to be in other organizations. They work for issues or causes, but they don't pick the candidates or back the candidates so that they get elected.
