It's time for president nominations this week.  We can either proceed and start with nominations in a new thread or it's been presented to me that we continute rolling with how things are.

Current President is TXCAJUN (Randy).

What say you?

[Lucky]

I have no problem with the current prez and board.  I say let they serve another year....of course that sounds like a prison sentence, lol

[matap]

^ I second this motion.

[DavidJ]

I am good with that also.

[TheWatcher]

I will fourth the motion.

If needed?

 

[Luckys Lover]

No Parole! No Parole!

[wwaggett]

  No need to rock the boat.

[XSPWR]

Agreed.  It ain't broke, sooooooo..................

[xcaliber]

Do they want to stay? If not, I nominate Miller Grove!

[Txcajun]

I have told Brock that I  plan on running again. I spoke with a few of the other board members and said if no one was interested that there is no since in going through the whole election process. I am willing to go at least two more years.

[Gumbo]

I love a gluten for punishment, two more years is fine as long as everyone agrees to no more warm Jell-O shots

NO!  Even if no one runs, the entire slate should stand and be duly elected.  The prez talking to the board is absolutely NOT the same as a membership vote.  It appears that "someone" is saying that the membership is divided into super members (Board) Semi-Super members (posters on the board) and non-entities (Those that don't post and apparently will forfeit their membership privileges for the crime of not posting.)  This membership consists of a relatively small group that posts and a very large group that seldom post.  Duly elected officers are required if only to keep the yapping to a minimum.

While I will probably vote for Randy again, I feel we should follow the rules as stated by RocknRoll, or do away with them altogether.       
 "The President shall be elected bi-annually through a poll vote by the membership. Nominations shall occur between dates chosen by the Board of Directors, but shall be no earlier than 5 weeks prior to October 1, and no later than 2 weeks prior to October 1.  A poll vote thread shall be posted to allow the membership to vote between dates determined by the Board of Directors, but no earlier than 4 weeks prior to October 1 and no later than 1 week prior to October 1. "
Given that we are late, I feel it is time to get it done. If someone wants to jump in the race, they should be afforded the opportunity, as I see it.

SSSSSssssssnake

[Txcajun]

First of all I personally have done far more than police yapping on the board. I nor any other member of the board has ever made any comment about any type of divided group. I have spent endless amounts of time and effort along with the other board members looking out for the best intrest of this group. I merely made the suggestion that if no one else was interested in serving as president I would continue to do so. If everyone feels that an election should still take place then let's do it. And as stated before I will run or continue serving as president either way that is decided. We can not help if the ones that do not post are not heard. I never intended to keep anyone from having the opportunity to run for the position.

I agree with RocknRoll and Snake.

To make it fair we need to continue doing it the same. That way nobody can come back and say it was done under the table or it was showing favoritism. It will all be above board. Members that do not post or get on the board often will have the opportunity to vote and if they DO NOT then it is their own fault.

Randy, I feel you have done allot for the Group.
