...and in the interim, vote for Democrats who'll support the war. Demos, as opposed to mere Dems, can scare the ruling class if they're big enough. Demos brought down a few regimes in Argentina (not that the US government is as weak as Argentina's, of course). Large demos made the Vietnam war much more of a political problem than it would have been otherwise. Why the either/or approach, anyway?
