Whatever else one may think of Susan, those acts, both against her and
her responses to them, have given her a unique position in this. What
do you think of me posting her statement here on my own? I notice that
in normal politics, candidate position statements are treated in the
press as public domain, but I don't know what the rules are or how
the rest of you would feel about that.
Oh, and yes, Joe in fairness to you, I confirm your statement about my
supporting Susan.

I suppose that you must be referring to the statement by Susan Polgar
below.
However, these are just meaningless feel-good statements that
candidates often make. They do not address any of the serious problems
that the USCF is facing now.
They also do not answer such pertinent questions as: When will Susan
return the computer she took from the USCF offices on August 20, 2003?
Susan has banned me from posting to her own blog. She has also
repeatedly demanded that I be banned from posting to the USCF Forums.
She has also allowed and kept fake postings on her own blog. For
example, her blog contains several postings by HMB. However, the real
HMB states that he has never posted there. Even her supporter,
Tanstaafl, a/k/a Herbert Rodney Vaughn, states that his identity has
been forged to postings on Susan's blog.

Welcome to the future of the USCF!
I vow to restore the respectability, honesty, integrity and credibility
back to the USCF and US Chess. My message is very clear. The USCF MUST
change for the better!
The current state of the USCF is not acceptable! Sponsors do not trust
the USCF. Supporters do not trust the USCF. Too many board members have
violated the members' trust.
Here are some of my areas of focus:
- The respectability and credibility of the USCF MUST be drastically
improved!
- The destructive Chess Politics MUST be stopped!
- The welfare of US Chess and the USCF MUST be the #1 priority!
- The level of professionalism of the USCF MUST be improved!
- The USCF budget MUST be balanced!
- The USCF MUST support and promote all its membership categories! A
strong cooperation and partnership between adult, collegiate, youth and
scholastic chess as well as military, correspondence, email and
Internet chess, etc. MUST be established!
- The USCF MUST establish a strong Professional Marketing and PR
system!
This election is NOT about me! This election is about the future of US
Chess and the USCF for years to come. Thank you for your support!
Together, we WILL change the USCF for the better!
