Protesting might be a first step, but what really counts is organizing. The Pirate Party started in 2006 and now has a man (and maybe soon a woman) in the European Parliament and active parties in a dozen countries. I know some people are skeptical to the whole phenomenon, but that's mostly because they don't understand where it came from. I'm not saying that starting a political party is the right thing to do in the US, but organizing and getting heard probably is.
