I can understand why someone who advocated violent overthrow of the government wouldn't want to go into too much detail about how they would go about doing it, but I do think the original poster brought up a good point.
How would you deal with those who disagree with your politics?
I don't see any way that you could deal with them without violating your own principles.
Sure you can, in a very sucessful democratic manner..... and here is one possible manner:

(So long as the government doesn't muck around with assasinations and other stupid things.)

Hold a national referendum (If that's possible in the US, I'm not sure) on the quality you feel you are getting from your government. Get details surveys about the democrats and the republicans..... make sure you get every detail, every possible excuse you want, and build a national defence that the country is fed up with the government and want serious change, and a new system of government.

Make a national poll.... and if you like, try and make an online, independant, securely sponsored poll for all to log on and voice their concerns, then hold a vote.

If the government will not sanction this, that would be the first show of not doing what the country wants, and you could start a revolution there. But if you want more assurance, make the vote and poll independant like the survey.... make sure that it is covered by a couple of lawyers and make sure everything is ligit and sanctioned so that nothing can be questioned.... and then run it.

If a majority want change, then you should by your democratic rights remove the government anytime you wish...... it is by the people for the people, isn't it?

If they fight it and refuse to accept the vote, and possibly say something like it didn't go through the appropreate proceedures that laws and other votes have to do, like goto Congress or whatever.......

.... Then your defense by your lawyers would be that the system is what is in question and therefore can not be trusted. They either accept the ruling of the national people of the USA, or prepare for a military revolution.

By this time, I hardly believe your soldiers would even fathom to take up arms against your own people.

Simple, straight forward, and effective.

Enjoy....
