Gen. Laub, Sir
I did not know the complete history on how the election process envolved and I want to thank you for that.
I did want to clear the air a little, when I prepared my goals for my re-election, and when I was asked about allowing more officers to vote on the CoA election - I would like to see the upper staff officers to be allowed to vote regardless of their ranks, since most of them would be working with the CoA and that is why I stated that they need some time in that slot before be allowed to but I then go on to say that I would like to extend it to allow ALL Major Generals to vote as well.
If I counted correctly there are only 32 or so Lt. Gen. and Generals on the CSA side of the club...but allowing the voting to include Major Generals this would increase the numbers to around 75.
I understand that we would never get 75 much least then the 32 officers to vote...but it would give the appearance that the general membership has more of a voice in who they elected.

"Any people, anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable and most sacred right - a right which we hope and believe is to liberate the world. Nor is this right confined to cases in which the whole people of an existing government may choose to exercise it. Any portion of such people, that can may revolutionize and make their own of so many of the territory as they inhabit."
