As usual I do agree with Ed, but not completely. I do think John Bemont
would be a fantastic president for us, but I don't know who else is running.
Even he has not been announced. Now, besides getting a great leader, it will
make Ed happy as he has never been on the board before.

But, I would urge everyone to vote for who will do the best for the club, the
members and the breed. I don't care if they have been on the board before, if
they are short, tall, bald, or even a lawyer. Pick the best person for the
job. Voting is important since a lot of members vote for names they
recognize, rather than who they know.

That is where I agree with Ed. Think about your vote and if you don't know,
ask someone. I don't agree to just vote for someone because they haven't
been on the board. I can name about ten people I would not want as a board
member, (I would be number one), and pick the best person for the job. Use
no other issue in voting.

Evan

Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] August 12, 2016 Letter to the Membership

Dear GSDCA Member, like you I am a member of the GSDCA. I have been a
member for the better part of thirty years. About ten years ago I ran for
board of directors and was soundly defeated. Because my views on most things
are a bit extreme its perhaps a good thing I lost that election. Last
January I had decided I would end my relationship with the club for
irreconcilable differences , a friendly divorce so to speak. The structure of
the board in my opinion sets up an environment where the same group of people
control the club for many many years. However, much to my surprise a member
decided that she wanted to continue hearing my voice on issues involving the
GSDCA, so she paid my membership dues ( thank you Penny for saving the
marriage? lol) so here I am! We have a very important election coming soon. I
don't know all the candidates but when I see them I'll know exactly who will
win. That's right, I can predict the outcome without any skill at all! And if
you've been in this club ten years or longer you too can predict the winners!
I had a "term" ( no pun intended) I coined for these repeat winners but I
promised I'd stop saying it on this list. I am asking you when you vote to
give back this club to the membership! Cast your vote for some one who has
not been on the board for over ten years. In nature organisms that don't
change or adapt DIE! I sure hope this does NOT happen to the GSDCA. In
closing thank you for reading this letter and remember this one last thing,
if you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always got!
Sincerely Ed Hill
