I disagree with both of your statements.

The original proposal was not perfect by any stretch of the imagination. That's why I and 6 other people voted against it. Politics had nothing to do with that vote. Politics have nothing to do with any current or future proposals, as far as I am concerned.

If some future ambassador proposal makes sense for FlyerTalk and isn't filled with riders and rules that I don't agree with, then I will probably vote for it. "Politics" as you so quaintly put it, don't drive my decision, nor do I suspect they drive much of the rest of TalkBoard's decisions.
