I always thought representation from each region was an excellent idea. It
made sense, it allowed people to have someone from their region
representing
them, that had an understanding of the issues of concern in that region.
I have heard this before, and always been against it.
We do not have regional problems in our breed. In other words the problems
of hips, health, pigment, temperament, teeth, judging, shows, etc. have nothing
to do with regions. They are a national problem and even if we had a board
where everyone was from North Dakota, they would be confronting the same
problems and issues as someone in Iowa.
With politicians and government it makes sense to have regional people, as
they have specific problems for their own districts. But, with the GSDCA we are
not a regional breed with regional problems.
I have never heard a valid reason to have regional representatives. I would
rather elect the best person I can, no matter where they reside. To fill a
position on the board from a region, just because we need to have someone from
each region would defeat the ability to have the best and the brightest on
our board. That is what I want. And usually what we get. If they all come
from Arkansas, so be it.
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
