I'm moving to Sarasota and joining Haasie in his kiddie-proof bomb shelter. Hyperbole aside now, I'd be very interested to see what this quartet thinks they can do for me as an adult chess player, and what can they plant to do for professional chess in this country. The US Championship seems dead in the water, the last released plan was an inane and insane internet knockout format culminating in a match in Vegas. It may be profitable to milk the scholastic world for as much money as possible, but in the end all you do is spin your wheels servicing the youngsters who invevitably leave chess. Also the incredible conflict of interests here are astounding. The USCF has paid a lot of money to the SPF and if Truong and Polgar are elected that would essentially put the SPF on the board. Though I like Bauer, I'd be hard pressed to vote for this group unless they can convince me they can do something other than push chess in schools which does nothing for me. Convince me that they can ethically still deal with the SPF and that's gonna be a large pill to swallow. I reckon though that cult of personality will win the day as always. For good, or for ill. And I'm not a politico, or in the pay of the shadow chess government(which meets Wednesday nights at Subway) out to destroy Susan Polgar either. Just a very skeptical voter looking after my interests and wanting to be convinced. |

Susan Polgar want to strip children naked in a FIDE Drug Test. She is
BAD FOR CHESS, and needs some psychological help. I for one, do not support her efforts while black children on St Kitts can't play in the World Chess Championship. I hope that she has enough money to play with the "big boys." I will not help her in FIDE as long as she continues her RACIST views. Marcus Roberts Presdient Charlesotn Chess Assocaition, Inc.
