You had it exact almost word for word. The only thing you have wronge is that the pres. does not have a vote. Other than that. You got it word for word. Why do you drive a tractor trailer when you should be a professor.

Speaking of professors it seems you have had an answer for just about everybody on this thread with one exception...Frank Dodson.  Why does he feel his efforts were fruitless while making suggestions to the by-laws committee. 

You do realize he is a highly intelligent man as well.
Could it be because the by-laws committee is just a farce!!! or did the by-laws committee deem his ideas as...well not very good.

I believe I would go with the first one...The by-laws committee is a farce.
Still fully cocked and indeed the thing is loaded
