    1. [STATE-COORD] VOTING IS AN AMERICAN RIGHT - So is Dissent -
    2. MAK - Transcriber
    3. When I vote for anyone - I base it upon not only their record, but their reputation. I NEVER vote for people who sling mud - because usually they are hiding behind a pile of it. I NEVER vote for people whose basis work ethic is lacking, because they will have nothing to provide. And I certainly don't vote for people who constant criticize the organization they are pledged (or want to be pledged) to support, because if they don't love it, with all it's flaws, how can they represent those of us who do... Most of the people who have been serving on the USGenWeb, whether as NC, SC, ASC, CC, - and all others, have been hard working and doing their best, while all the time have been constantly harassed and heckled by a few, I call the VOCAL minority. I might not like all of them, and I might not agree with all of them - but, it does NOT give me the right to constantly harrass them over insignificant issues... which usually are the figment of someone's imagination, like reading something into an email which just isn't there. The VOCAL minority like to stir the pot - they tend to send email after email accusing others, and squawking about "their rights" but do not look at their own actions. They are so busy attacking others - they do not have time to do anything POSITIVE for USGenWeb. They will put up websites which are offensive to many, hog the conversations on the DISCUSS and ALL lists. All of us can recognize them, yet they seem to remain clueless about their behavior. You will notice, I am not naming any names - but, if the shoe fits, I am sure someone will wear it LOUDLY shortly after this posts (smile). I don't mind, as I have a DELETE key - which is my right (tongue in cheek - LOL), BTW - I spent twenty years defending the American Rights as a MARINE - excuse me if I take offense at people who use the term "our rights" as it is a free pass to be RUDE and OBNOXIOUS. Rights have consequences. The right to VOTE at USGenWeb - should not be compare to the rights of Americans. Especially on the 4th of July, when we celebrate our independence. The History of the Tiananmen Square protest of 1989 can be found at - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Tianasquare.jpg I was pretty sure it had nothing to do with the USGenWeb voting - but wanted to check the FACTs for myself. - It also includes the Licensing and permissions for their photos... I would really like to hear some POSITIVE things people are doing for USGenWeb - we used to be about helping each other - and the genealogy community - now the lists are so filled with NEGATIVITY no sane person would want to read - much less post to... Can we really get back to genealogy ??? I just finished answering over 100 posts to people searching for clues - almost everyone sent me a thank you - it just made my day - that is what is important to me - not who is supposedly "protecting" my rights... Thanks for letting me blow off steam and VOICE MY OPINION (which you may or may not agree with) - hope you have a wonderful 4th of July. And let me know if there is anything I can lookup for you - after the fireworks, ofcourse (grin)...

I would guess that they feel the AB needs reps who will support and uphold the Rights of Members. As whom to vote for ... when we have elections here in Nevada, I do not go and check out the candidates homes. I do not judge a candidate upon how well maintained their homes are, nor if their homes add value to the neighborhood or not. I judge candidates upon their track records, and their platforms. In the race for RAL ... I am the only candidate who has a proven track records of having the adamant stance that the Bylaws and the Rights of Members should be upheld and enforced by the NC / AB. Anywho ... my campaign page has received its final update: http://www.mindspring.com/~dlytton/2009/index.html Daryl -- Fighting for your rights since 2002 ------------------------------
