You'll find out how much your politicians really like you if you show up to their homes.

What state are you in? Try looking it up on GOOGLE.

Also: are you talking about Scott Brown? Could you provide a link?
Kerry's house is in Beacon Hill.

Errrr, showing up at/near their houses isn't going to accomplish much except ID you as a stalker.

Some other ideas: fax, call, contact via their web page your reps, and key players, such as Reid, Nelson, Snowe, McConnell ...

Who else?

Google "who is my senator" or "who is my congressperson" and you'll find their web sites, contact info, etc.

Don't snail-mail - it takes 4 - 8 weeks for snail-mail to get through security (thank you anthrax). Usually their web site form or e-mail is only useful for constituents. But, their fax numbers in DC are available - use that.

So what ideas do you have for getting a group to peacefully and lawfully demonstrate outside local offices?

I know my choice of words for the title of this thread were not the best. I'm aware.
As far as ideas go for lawful demonstrations go, that I will take up in another forum which tends to have a more proactive membership.
