When representative forms of government do not do what each person wishes that government had done, it is the right of each person to act within the law in order to affect a change. A person who does not want to do much may vote for the candidate whom they believe best represents their interests. A person willing to do a little more may choose to volunteer their time and/or their money to support the candidate whom they hope wins election. A person who is inspired may choose to become personally involved with government by running for office themselves.
