Many people in this group know each other very well. Some of us (me) 
know a few people here well. So in this election, once it becomes a 
contest, I think we should perhaps talk about what the candidates bring 
to the table. I think it's important that we make the best decision we 
can out of the outstanding candidates we have to choose from.

For example, since this is the non-commercial constituency and the rest 
of ICANN is commercial I think we need people who understand that just 
because someone has a 501c3 IRS status or a .org domain name that 
doesn't mean they are non-commercial. There are plenty of places for 
commercial users to express their interests and the non-commercial side 
is not one of them. So I'd like to see people who see the bright line 
between commercial and non-commercial be the ones who get elected. I 
personally feel that the voice of money is a threat to the future of 
humanity and that someone has to speak for people. And that someone 
would be us.
