Default decision 2008, Let us decide!!

When do we decide? I challenge alpa to present a poll that not only has the option to vote on a democrat candidate but also a republican candidate. I would like to see a poll that would show a demographic of alpa member political affiliation for this 2008 election. Alpa's function is to represent it members. I suggest they start.
What percentage of alpa members do you think vote Dem vs. Rep?

Mr Stanwick-these forums don't allow political discussion. If you are laboring under the delusion that either party has actually helped unions over the last thirty years, I suggest you dust off a history book and start reading about their steady decline under both parties.

I agree 100% jungle. Both parties have had lack luster support for the airline industry unions. The reason for this question asked the way I did is to show a demographic of alpa members and then be able to draw a conclusion that alpa is or is not representing its members correctily. If you have a better question in mind that might be able to get the same results lets hear it. My intent is to do some fact finding reasearch then be able to make a logical conclusion.

Yeah, because politics never impact airline pilots.

I know, I know, your playground, your ball, blah blah blah. But seriously...

Yes seriously, we're not going to host the ensuing anonymous food fight. Makes you wonder why ALPA can't provide an acceptable venue huh?
