No, you’re clearly not understanding the system. It’s far more than a “leader.” It’s the whole organization being willing to implement sanctions. We’re talking about shunning those who are pariahs. The Congressional Black Caucus, for ex., wouldn’t even admit J.C. Watts.

Yes..I understand...but all successful organizations must have a successful leader. The following become the enforcers.... I believe you and I actually completely agree...maybe semantics get in the way...since I am a Texian....at times that can create a communications problem.

Actually I do understand the system and have been part of it (sausage making). I spent several years at the TNRCC, a left-leaning environmental commission in Texas during the Clinton years.

Yes it was a painful assignment, being a consevative...but I certainly got an education in the field of political power and regulation development.....

I was shocked with the ease one could write regulations and simply implement them at will. It was both enlightening and frightening.
