[Lnc-business] 2017 revenues compared to last 10 years

[Elizabeth Van Horn]

Yes, I also saw the commentary in 2016.  But, I think this past year 
(2017) is one that will be studied in LP history, more than most.

How many state affiliates made resolutions or statements of censure, 
asking for a resignation, or removal of a VC?  I lost track.  Nor, do I 
recall new group forming in reaction to the chair's social media spat, 
with the purpose removing of the LP chair.  There's more too.

2017 wasn't a regular year for dissatisfied LP members.  Hence the 
interest in attending the 2018 convention.

But, we shall agree to disagree.
