Subject: Re: Jamal was voted in
hello harvey:
here you go again jumping to conclusions before you know the facts.  Jamal
has in fact been allowed to join the nfb once again, but not on the same
terms as you or anyone else.  perhaps you should read your october monitor
before you conclude that the national leadership has done or not done
something that you don't like again.  Incidentally, Jamal is the one who
asked if he could join the nfb again.  i believe he has written about his
reasons for doing so, so please check it out first before complaining
again.  
thanks,
j. g.
