I appreciate that Sherry wrote this to me, but published it to the List. I have no problem with Jim, or his support of Carmen. I also recognize what Carmen has done for this breed, and the role he has played in the history of the German Shepherd. If someone is waiting for me to drop the other shoe, it will not happen. I have tried to not take a side on this. I remain proud to call Carmen a friend, and while I may not agree with everything he has done, I respect and recognize his contribution to our breed. I am not a director of the GSDCA. My opinion is not relevant on this topic, and I wouldn't want anyone to use my opinion to change their vote. I like Carmen, I believe he has done a great deal for the club, I believe he has a lot to offer in the future, and I believe our board will do what they believe is in the best interest of the breed, the club and the members. Whatever our board does, I support them for the efforts they donate to us all. And, I thank Jim, Sheree and Carmen for sharing with us their opinions.
