You can be as "technical" as you want, but AERC does in fact support FEI.

Are you saying that at the NM ride, Fits, Git r done, Owyhee, Ft. Howes and 
the Desert Classic, the ride manager will NOT be collecting a per rider 
starter fee and AERC sanctioning fees from those riders that are riding for 
FEI? Are you saying that if the FEI rider is not an AERC member, they are 
not required to pay the "day" fee and do they have their own insurance? Are 
you saying that all of the fees involved in putting on a ride will NOT apply 
to the FEI riders?

If AERC accepts money from the ride manager, and gives sanctioning to a ride 
so that they HAVE FEI rides, which is for the benefit of AERC-I riders, how 
in the world can you say AERC does not support FEI? Who else gives 
international sanctioning for AERC-International riders? So AERC offers 
training, training clinics, has a committee dedicated to international 
riding all of which takes place under FEI and you say AERC has nothing to do 
with that??

That just doesn't make sense.
