The AFN convention is a great time to renew old acquaintances. However, it is not a good idea to expect too much to actually happen after the excitement of the convention dies down. If you take a look at the resolutions that will be introduced you will find they look suspiciously like those worked on 50 years ago. Much ado about nothing. I have never like AFN endorsing candidates for office. But, I guess those guys in charge know better. On Tribal authority, the regional CEOs do not like Tribalism so the Tribes will be on the back burner for another 50 years.
