Another good post Evan.  I'm glad you still feel strongly about the 
issue of the number of Selects should remain in the hands of the judge 
chosen by the membership.  After all, that membership that voted for 
that judge is bringing  their dogs to be considered for the GV/GVX title 
and want to know that they have just a good a change to get that as 
someone else and not have to worry about the cut off limitation. 
Because we have been presented with a slate of Officer nominees and 
other people are also bringing to the slate some of their choices, now 
is the time for the membership to really consider who they think would 
be beneifical as the future leaders of our club.  What I would like to 
see is when these people are nominated, I don't just want to see their 
names.  I want to know a little something about the person I am asked to 
be considered to place my vote for.  Sure, I've heard of most of these 
people, and know some of them personally, but I want to know a little 
background about them.  Just because I've heard of someone and know 
they've been in the breed for a long time doesn't mean I know anything 
enough about them to vote for them.  IMO, when someone is nominated to 
hold an important title in the club, the membership should know a little 
about who they are voting for.  There are many new members who don't 
know any of these people.  How are they to make an intelligent choice 
about who they want to run their club?  I wouldn't pick the next 
President of the United States to run my country who I didn't know 
something about what they're bringing to the plate, so why should I vote 
on future officers of my club any differently?  Just don't give me the 
peoples names.......give me their credentials please!   I don't want to 
do the "popular" thing.  I want to make an educated decision.  Barbara
