Heidi Washington, candidate for NRA Board
Just got word that Heidi Washington, daughter of the late Tom Washington, who died in 1995 while serving as NRA President (he died after suffering a heart attack while deer hunting). It's worth mentioning that, when George H. W. Bush resigned from NRA after a "jack-booted thug" reference, Washington released very effective response. Heidi is an endowment member, endorsed by the nominating committee, head of the Michigan Department of Corrections and supporter of the Warden's Cup competition.
Looks as if as head of the Dept of Corrections she has received some praise as a reformer.
She is a lawyer. Todd Rathner is a lawyer, Adam Kraut is a lawyer. I like them all, but I have concerns of loading up the NRA Board with all lawyers. I also have a problem with all the celebrities who tend to not do much IMHO.
