One way you progressives can really make a difference is vote for the party that isn't taking money from corporations or has been corrupted by big business, lawyers or banks.
I am talking about the Green Party of Colorado. Is there really a difference between the Democrats and Republicans fundamentally? I say no. That's why I think if you're liberal minded and open to fighting for the little guy, I think the Green party is the party for you:

The Green Party is a political alternative for those committed to building a sustainable and just society. What makes Green politics different is a holistic, ecological outlook that recognizes the interconnection of all life and social processes, and that neither social nor environmental problems can be solved in isolation from each other. We pursue a broad conception of politics that embraces electoral efforts, the development of alternative institutions, education for empowerment, nonviolent direct action, and ecological lifestyles. We choose these issues based on the Colorado Green Party Core Values
