Brisboy,
One final point then I'm outta here (It's gotten VERY boring!!)
"Represented by those of our choice"
What choice? AN and TN were AFAP closed shops. If you wanted to work for either you HAD to join. There was no choice. I know of guys who HAD to join, voted AGAINST the campain at the outset, and then either DIDN'T resign or withdrew their resignations immediatley they knew the AFAP had exercised them against their will and in opposition to it's promise not to use them without further consultation.
These people are labled scabs and are on the list.
Where was their democratic right?
The AFAP only got into the "Democratic right" for representation after it lost the "Automatic Monopoly" option.
