Marcus Roberts reversed the credit card charges for his USCF Life
Membership !!!!

Grant Perks, the USCF In-House Accountant and also a candidate for
election to the USCF Executive Board, has posted the startling news
that Marcus Roberts purchased a Life Membership for himself and
regular memberships for nine other people but then subsequently
reversed all the credit card charges for these ten memberships.

Perks says that nevertheless Marcus Roberts and his nine friends have
all received ballots for the current election. Perks wants these ten
ballots to be declared invalid and not counted.

This revelation raises so many questions I cannot even list them all.
First, I do not think that Marcus Roberts or anybody else should be
allowed to reverse credit card charges for a USCF Membership,
particularly where, as here, an election is involved.

Secondly, Grant Perks became aware of this situation by working in the
Crossville Office of the USCF. The other candidates, with the
exception of Ernie Schlich, do not work for the USCF and therefore
would never have known about this.

Judging by the postings by Marcus Roberts on the Internet, it is most
unlikely that Marcus Roberts would vote for Grant Perks or for any
other current USCF employee. Since this election is likely to be
close, Grant Perks is understandably concerned about losing these ten
votes and therefore has complained.

Marcus Roberts is still listed on the USCF website as a Life Member of
the USCF.

Here is the posting by Grant Perks on this subject:

"I understand that 10 or more ballots were sent to individuals
who should not be considered current members. Apparently an electronic
credit card payment by Marcus Roberts for his life membership as well
as annual memberships for 9 other residents of Florida was backcharged
by American Express at Mr. Roberts's request in March 2006. The USCF
did not correct the membership records for Mr. Roberts, and I assume
they did not correct the membership records of the other 9
individuals.

"In my opinion, the USCF office should review their backcharge
and credit card reversal transactions for the past twelve months to
identify any potential individuals that should be denied voting
privileges. Once identified, the ballots of those individuals should
not be counted in the state delegate election nor special board
election.

"Best,
"Grant Perks"

At the present time, I have only gotten ONE BALLOT. The ballot was
FLAWED. The ballot was so FLAWED I decided to VOTE FOR SLOAN. The
Delegates in Floirda got 12 votes, but the state assocaition only sent
10 names. I sat on the USCF bylaws committee, and the BALLOT WAS A
FRAUD FOR THE DELEGATES IN FLORIDA. I do not understand how to
correctly fill out of the ballot, so, in the case of Al Gore,

"VOTE OFTEN"

Grant has no authoirty under the USCF bylaws to reverse the vote. MY
VOTE WAS FOR SLOAN.

In the case where the ballots are this screwed up, Sloan is the best
candidate. Sloan's legal knolwedge is needed becasue I have no
confidence that people know how to correctly vote.

Marcus Roberts

And do you suck Sloan's 3 inch smelly disgusting dick too? I bet you
and your ten boyfriends just love sucking his dick. His wife does it
everyday for her visa. What do you do it for? Enjoy his cum you scum!
