I don't know about this.

First I really don't think we could get enough people.

And second, unfortunately, I don't think that the group that would show up would be the faces that we want out there that will sway american/congressman votes. I see a lot of 18-24 yr old students making the trip and not enough older players taking time off to fly/drive to DC. (Are there any casinos near by? Maybe they could hold a tourney to give players an incentive to go to DC)

Also I think the best thing to show the public is that congress has taken away a hobby of 20 million people, and not $100K opportunity from an 18 year old. It feeds right into their "addiction starts at a young age" concerns.

I think the petitions or something else that will show a strength in numbers would be a better idea. And with all the intelligence that the online community has I'm sure there are some better ideas floating out there.
