[ALAC] ACTION: Endorsements: Competition, Consumer Trust and Consumer Choice Review Team

[Alan Greenberg]

There is no formal rule against endorsing 
candidates who did not identify ALAC in the 
application. However, I see little merit in 
evaluating all 72 applications, and for the 
reasons that Cheryl, outlines, I do not think it 
proper for us to unilaterally "adopt" a candidate.

If you know of someone who you think we should 
consider, please let me know and I will contact them privately.
