I beg to differ with you on this. those we elect are voted in based
on promises to constituents to represent their wishes when it comes time
for a vote.
I may be nuts, (shut up Paul) but I vote for a board member who I feel will
do the best he or she can for the breed, the club and the members. If I
wanted my opinion heard on the board, or only my wishes to prevail, II would
run
and then I could vote what I think is best.
When someone runs for any office, they tell us what they think, or how they
have voted in the past. If we like what we hear, then we vote them in. I
have never had a candidate agree to vote how I tell them to.
If you think you are voting for someone to do what you tell them to do, you
are putting into office someone without ideas of their own. I don't do that,
but maybe others do.
We each have the right to vote for the candidate we want, and if you want
someone to follow you blindly on the votes, you have a right to vote for that
person. But, since we are all individuals, and all have different ideas, I
doubt that person will get enough votes to be elected.
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
