As much as I hate identity politics, the next NRA president (and I hope it comes soon) needs to be something other than a white male. Preferably a racial minority so that any criticism of the NRA or its members is labeled as racist.

A top National Rifle Association executive signed a document agreeing that the gun-rights organization would be 99% owner of a company formed to buy a $6 million Dallas mansion for NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre, according to a copy of the document reviewed by The Wall Street Journal.
The document also shows the NRA agreed to contribute $6.5 million to the company formed to buy the property, raising yet more questions about the NRA’s previous statements that none of the gun-rights group’s money was to be used to purchase the house for Mr. LaPierre.
The newly revealed document reviewed by the Journal was dated at the time of WBB Investments’ formation in May 2018, and was signed by Wilson H. Phillips Jr., the NRA’s then-chief financial officer and treasurer. In it, he agreed that the NRA would contribute $6.5 million for 99% ownership of WBB Investments, while an Ackerman entity would contribute $10 for 1% ownership.
I vote for Colion Noir. He's smart, has a good background with the NRA, is a lawyer, well spoken and black.As much as I hate identity politics, the next NRA president (and I hope it comes soon) needs to be something other than a white male.

Yes, preferably someone that will look the president, politicians, gun control activists in the face and tell them to "F*** off!"Ha! No. For a refreshing change of pace, the person hired or elected or knighted or whatever, should actually be chosen because they are the best qualified person for the job, not by "who you knew" or "who you blew"...

And then, yes someone who knows a lot of people and who counteracts notions about NRA demographics.
Well then, how about Michelle Obama? Her husband helped to sell more civilian guns than any other president in history!
If I raise $1 million dollars and expense $50,000 for my new toy loosely connected to the shoot I went to with the donor, not a single BoD in the world will say no. And I guarantee if you were on the board, you would approve the expense too. If you didn't your org would never bring in money, because fundraising is not "here is the check." .
Yup. SAF is worth donating to. Their tactics are sound.SAF has the track record of winning cases that beats all of them including the NRA. SAF knows that case law is built one small brick at a time.

That certainly changes the equation. Wayne definitely needs to go. Now. On his padded Armani butt.
Now, who will pick up the NRA training and certification programs that currently make up about a third of their income? Is any organization large AND credible enough to carry the load?
Another question: FPC and GoA are great litigators AFTER an infringement, but who will lobby Congress/states BEFORE an infringement to prevent it?
Answers??? Are we between a rock and a hard place?
