Yes, that is precisely the 'I know better than the voters what they should want so I shall impose it on them' attitude to which I refer.
Why are you and others so unwilling to let the voters look at what a flyertalker posts in the election forum and make their own decision as to whether they want that person representing them?
Who are YOU or anyone else to tell them who is worthy to stand and who is not?
Let each flyertalker decide that for him or herself based on what they read in the election forum and let the chips fall where they may.
