Where are the Objectivists?

Can Objectivists make an impact on the political climate of our country? Is it time for them to try?

"To thoroughly expose the viciousness of Dean’s proposals, one must name and attack its moral premise. One must defend egoism." Dean's moral premise is, of course, altruism. How do Objectivists go about making a political impact when the moral basis of our culture is altruism? Remember that Ayn Rand maintained that politics was an effect, not a cause.
