Default AMA Leader Members or "Wanna Bees"

If you are a Leader Member, there is a place where Leader Members can converse. The AMA Forums have such a forum however you have to be awarded the proper handshake by a Mr. Brent - [email protected] - before you can even see that forum when you are on the main AMA Forum.
This has been a well kept secret, however the cat is now out of the bag, so go for it. There are some very interesting thoughts being kicked around there.

Now if you would like to be a Leader Member, there are prescriptions in the AMA Documents - http://www.modelaircraft.org/documents.aspx - that provide the details. Now if you have problems with those requirements, about all you need to do is to contact your AMA District Vice President, and he can arrange for waivers of most requirements if he should care to do so. Git muh drift thar, Ol' Pard?

Leader Members may not do much other than vote on changes to AMA Bylaws, however IMO if more members would get interested and join in, I can see the possibility of making some changes for better representation with the EC policy makers. They are all "Leader Members" and so why not join their somewhat exclusive club? I did back in 1964.
