It will never happen unless we let our LEC reps know that we are 100% behind them if they initiate a recall of the MEC chairman. They all know he's a dictator, they're just afraid they don't have the support of the members. We HAVE to assure the LEC's that they DO have our support.

The "Dear Leader" has no clothes. Only the LEC's can invoke a recall. The LEC's will do it if we demand it.

Remember that the MEC chairman is NOTHING more than the single voice of the MEC/LEC. The chairman is not even allowed to vote under the by-laws. Yet he currently runs things via an apparent cult of personality.

Don't bother writing Moak of your disagreements. His opinion is that RJ's are good for Delta Airlines - thus your opinion is meaningless to him. Write to your LEC reps and tell them you support the recall of the MEC chairman.

In my opinion, the current chairman is like any other neighborhood bully. Once you punch him in the face, the cult of personality is instantly gone.
