Really?
First of all, why would you think manangement would need our "cooperation in some fashion" with there next merger? What could we do to stop it? Threaten to hold our breath until we turn blue and pass out?
That being said, find one post here where I have said constructive engagement is a waste of time?
Back to leverage.
We have an opportunity for real leverage this time around in Sec 6. It has been ten years since we last did this. Technology is far more advanced that it was ten years ago. While you ponder this leverage, consider what the cell phone, internet, and social websites did in Tahir Square, Egypt. Saqba, Syria. Sirte, Libya. I am somewhat confident you can figure it out.
Oh Wait, did you go to public Tennessee schools?
