<p dir="ltr">Thanks. I also read their bylaws. Sustaining members receive a newsletter. Sustaining membership is not required for leadership positions. It is, basically, a way to donate, and buys you a newsletter. It is never required. If it is odd that the Greens understand Tanstaafl and we don't, it is also strange that the Greens understand the idea of offering value for payment rather than requiring payment to qualify for office. I think both of these are mischaracterization, but there it is. </p>
