I don't agree that it was out of context.  Plain and simple,
there is NO PROHIBITION in the CIPS constitution and AFAIK
none in the act under which CIPS was incorporated.   Ergo,
I, a paying member  have the right to designate whomever I
chose to vote for me (proxy).  Right?

If the Board feels they should adopt the guidelines
recommended by RObert's or an Act, then let them raise the
issue in a constitutional manner and vote accordingly.  That
is appropriate due process, wouldn't you say?

Or are we subject to more on-the-fly rules??
