Voting is the most important political act for an American citizen. This is the case because it is the one act that has direct consequences for the leadership of the country. While the other options do provide a means to make one's voice heard, the leaders can easily choose to ignore them. However, because votes are the thing that puts leaders in office and removes them, leaders are directly impacted and more likely to listen to your concerns.
