obviously you need a refresher course on what is needed
to be an ambassador:

1. Democrat-
2. BIG money donor
3. Homo or Lesbian
4. hates Christians
5. Hates Israel
6. likes to Party and spend taxpayers money

I don’t know why they have not filled the positions?

(waiting for the donor check to clear?)
