Many of us are involved in politics outside of voting. I write my congresscritters regularly, usually on matters of foreign affairs, for all the good it does. I donate when I can.

I hate to be a bad news bear, but calling and writing congress does effectively nothing. When it comes to actual policy (and not empty lip service), politicians only serve donors and lobbyists.

If we want real change then we will need to replace our broken and corrupt two party system with a modern multiparty democracy

Bullshit. They keep tallies of what their constituents have called in for and it does work when enough people pester long enough.
