Updated: Just a note: wearing an orange t-shirt, sweatshirt, jacket, whatever wouldn’t be considered “political attire” as far as the elections laws regarding the 25 foot rule on electioneering near polling places. ~ DS
I don’t have anything orange but did find an envelope that is orange that I can pin to my jacket. ~ DS
Orange Rebels on Oct 26, 2008
On election day, wear orange if you want to rebel against the United States 2-party political system!
Voting isn’t the only way to have your voice be heard!

Wearing orange is a great idea! But boycotting the elections seems self-defeating to me.
If you do not vote at least it would be helpful if you were to join VideotheVote.org or go out to the street with an orange sign of protest. Numbers of citizens who show they are invested in cleaning up government are the most effective tool we have, IMHO.

Zahir, thanks for your input.
We can also wear orange and NOT vote on Election Day as a choice to reject the “delusional democracy”.

I put it up on Current and it’s getting a lot of views and comments, hope you’ll check them out.
Supporting third parties is a hard sell sometimes, but we must continue our efforts.
Thanks, Lo! We only have a week, but maybe we can spread some awareness by using sites like Current, Digg, Youtube, etc. as fulcrum points!
