Default The NEWS is out so why not here?

Many Surprises:

Bob Brown is the New President of AMA.

Gary Fitch is the EVP.

Tim Jesky is the new DVII VP.

Mike Mosbrooker DVP in District XI.

Definitely NOT my Choices, however it is a shake-up and could well be a good thing. As Scarlett said, "Tomorrow is another day."

Sorry to rain on your post Horrace, but it won't matter who got in to the "anti-AMA" people. They'll just find ANOTHER reason to not like the AMA...I have said it NUMEROUS times that the AMA is NOT perfect, BUT it IS the best thing going right now, like it or not.

So much for RCU poll results . . .

Straw poll for AMA President



Bob Brown 10% (8)

Rich Hanson 29% (22)

Jim Rice 32% (24)

Horrace Cain (write in) 22% (17)

Other (write in) 5% (4)



Total Votes : 75

Any idea what the voter turnout was as compared to past elections?

They should have the vote count when it gets posted on the AMA website. Not sure how Hoss got the inside scoop since it is not posted yet. I don't know either of these two guys, so I have no opinion on where the AMA is going under their leadership.

Silent, I am not going to post that source here, however a PM is headed your way.

May I suggest you get in on the stuff being sent out to Leader Members. Our LM Program Administrator is not of the silent type as we have been so used to. That is a good thing, or so I see it that way.

Got your PM. No worries, I just wonder when the results with the tallies will be posted on the AMA site. As far as Rusty goes, well, we did not part the closest of friends when I left the LM Committee so it is no surprise I am not any of his distribution lists.

Have you considered identifying some of these .... imperfections so we can get them corrected?
AMA has a message board where we members can do that, we can even solicit / discuss ways to correct those imperfections you said (numerous times?) exist.
