Boycott America and all things American
If 59,000,000+ people think by hoisting the biggest insult every hoisted on the world is without consequences, you should demonstrate them wrong.

In 4 years I'd like to see people SO disillusioned with indiscriminate tax cuts and war-mongering republicans that they don't hit the White House again for a generation.

2. Just boycott the right-wing stuff
That will help the left gain more financial and economic power here and work against Bushco.

3. That may be a bit difficult...
I'm hoping to do an internship in Washington year after next on a Congressional sub-committee if my grade on the course I'm going to do is high enough to get me in. Boycotting the US and everything US might put a dent in that :)

4. Ever tried buying only truly Australian-made in the supermarket?
I do, and it's bloody hard. Most of our most treasured names are
now owned by US companies - even Vegemite. There is Dick Smith,
but his stuff is really pretty dreadful quality. You can buy a
few things here and there, but if you had to rely solely on Oz
companies, you'd be very hungry.
