[RC] By-laws Ammendent - April JohnsonI don't think this is a joke or funny. If we (the AERC) are going to insist that a person be a citizen or resident of the US to be a voting member, shouldn't we do the verification? Otherwise, go back to just letting people interested in the sport as it is in the US be Regular Members. If we're really concerned about non-citizens and non-residents swaying the vote and the direction of the AERC, shouldn't we be sure they're not just sending in bogus US addresses, collecting their ballots and voting? It's the same as insisting that horses be 5 before doing an endurance ride. If there is no check for the age of the horse, why have the rule? I think this rule about resident aliens is rather beside the point until we decide whether or not to validate identity. Otherwise, you resident aliens, just provide your address, pay your money and vote, who's checking?

Lets just look on the back of an I-9 and see what is acceptable proof of documents to work in the US and go by that while we are at it. =================================================================== EASY and FREE access to your email anywhere: http://email-reader.com/mail/ 4,500 cybercafes worldwide - http://netcafeguide.com/ =================================================================== =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= http://www.endurance.net/ads/seabiscuit.html Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
