RE: What changes at the AMA are DESPERATELY needed?
Right on Abel. The AMA is in good shape in IMHO, especially with the fact they decided to push through a parkflyer program, a little late, but better then never.
As far as leadership at the top, they'll come and go, but you can never take away what Muncie has to offer no matter how much the drama queens rant and rave. These guys at the top, the EC are not the AMA, they are just elected members who work for free. I respect what they do, but I don't reflect any of their bad decisions on where the AMA stands as a whole. But of course give them lots of credit for their good decisions, which I see more thnn bad. But this was the office they chose to run for so either bad or good falls on them, they wanted it.
I once said that Dave Brown is not the AMA, he's just an elected official and got a whole bunch of hissing for it. But it's no different then saying GWB is America, which we know is not true.
The AMA isn't going anywhere and obviously it's not in as bad as shape as most here WANT it to be.
