write your congressmen a written letter, but don't come across as a pothead but a concerned voter.

Smoking pot does not help marijuana become legal. Sorry to say, but as a person that has been arrested, it does absolutely nothing to help the cause except hurt your future finances.
Now, you want to help out with the effort? There are 3 huge things that can help with this effort.
1) Pick an organization to join that supports marijuana legalization. The big 3 are http://www.mpp.org http://www.norml.org http://www.drugpolicy.org
Go to all three websites, look around to see their message and pick the one that suits you best. Do not ignore this approach.
2) Write letters to your elected officials. The websites I listed above have systems to take action that make it extremely easy to email/mail/fax your elected officials. You have to take action!
3) The last step is to spread the word about marijuana legalization. Engage others in thoughtful conversation about marijuana using good english and always acknowledge that marijuana does have some harms. If they are receptive to your conversation, then refer them to one of the big three organizations I listed above. Spreading the word can take place in real life and/or online!

Single assassinations will only further the anti-drug cause. You'd have to actually have a whole revolution for it to work.

Actually, there seems to be growing support for marijuana legalization right now, and assassinating public figures would be the perfect way to completely fuck that up.

As long as theres a million people that have no eduction of drugs and what they really are, there will be no legalisation.
Its predujice against certain substances.
All politicians want is power, if enough voting people believe in MJ then it may change.
To me what you actually need to do is educate/change the majority of voting society!!! Not an easy task.

Legalization of marijuana is just such a small part of the big picture.
The question you should be asking is:
"What can I do to undermine society?"
To which I would reply:
"By supporting the underground economy."
One of the ways you can do this is by buying marijuana, not by smoking marijuana though. That only accomplishes getting you stoned, which is nice, but it doesn't really help undermine society very much.
Maybe you could buy marijuana, and then donate it to someone who has a legitimate medical need for it.

Where would you get enough seeds to make a difference?
Poppies now... That's another matter.

Just everyone save all your seeds all year and then scatter them in the woods in sunny spots every april. The combined effort of millions of pot smokers doing this would totally naturalize cannabis.
Especially since Cannabis can colonize and dominate huge areas rather quickly, one female can produce thousands of seeds which sprout, get eaten by birds and then shit out later to sprout in new locations etc. etc.
It's an easy way to be active too, the direct approach is often best, overgrow the bastards!!!!
Just ALWAYS toss your seeds on fertile ground and you are an activist!!!

Cannabis seeds need to be planted about an inch into the ground. Just scattering them won't work.
I was thinking once of designing a projectile made of of paper reinforced dirt that could be launched from liek, a crossbow or something.
It would land tip first, and then shatter along scored weak points so that the tip stayed in the ground. When it rained, the paper/dirt mixture would dissolve, and the seed could germinate and grow through it.
Might even work with compressed peat from those compressed peat pellets.

hahahahaha an herb planting gun. well, that's thinking, I'd love to see the prototype!
True what you said, though you could always kick the seeds around a bit with your foot and mix them in the dirt.
If you really wanted to go all out you could make mass cuttings of both sexes of plants and transplant them (one male one female per area) after they establish themselves for a few weeks indoors...

Er...no, that would be the worst possible place to start! As Paradigm pointed out, it would only make things worse, as well as reinforcing any false stereotypes many may have on this issue....
