There are a few petition sites that help fight some of corrupt political agendas. Normally you just sign and leave it up to the site to show how many email siginatures has been signed for a petition to stop something.
Here is something a little different
Since the SOPA bill has come into huge debate of it's OVERLY heavy weight bill of rushed ideas to stop piracy that can harm the way of the Internet and potentially destroy such popular sites such as reddit.com.
reddit.com started to find ways to help tackle this issue head on and debate tactics to stop candidates that support SOPA act.
The IAMA Request
One particular redditor requested Rob Zerban for an interview with reddit.com and ask what his thoughts are on the SOPA bill.
12 days later
Since http://www.robzerban.com/ done an IAMA interview on reddit.com. he has raised far press buzz and money than he could possibly imagine to out beat his challenger Paul Ryan. Paul Ryan dropped support for SOPA (further verification of this story here and Google News search 'Paul Ryan Sopa' ).
Up for another challenge
reddit.com accepted the challenge to show they can be political force to be reckon with.
Social people power at it's best :)
