[arin-discuss] Fwd: [ARIN-Suggestions] New ACSP Suggestion 2014.10: CHANGES TO CANDIDATE SPEECHES

So I feel that I missed some of the fun along the way.  Exactly how much
time was spent with these unsolicited endorsements???  I mean, this didn¹t
turn into a filibuster, did it?  If so, there are concepts within Roberts¹
Rules that would assist with that.

But the suggestion as it is written doesn¹t seem to be an appropriate
solution.  If someone wants to talk about off-topic things, no matter how
detailed the rules, they¹ll always find some way to do so.  And if people
are that put out by it, then the most appropriate action is to simply not
vote for the people that they like (although that brings about a whole
reverse-psychology idea too!).

The process doesn¹t appear to be broken.  Just a few individuals and their
use of it.

My two cents, although I wasn¹t thereŠ

Scott
