Randy (and others):
One of the problems with your proposla (though I will admit it does have
some interesting possibilities) is thatsomeone may not decide to run until
just before convention. It is a two year committment and needs to be
thought through thoroughly.
Additionally, let us suppose that there aren't enough candidates by the
due date to fill all the positions. How would that be handled at
convention? Certainly we wouldn't leave those positions out.
I think the current method works just fine (though Brothers who serve on
the Nominations Committee might think this a GREAT idea :-) )
