The VFW commander appoints the PAC directors:

ARTICLE V - OFFICERS
The VFW-PAC shall have a Director, a Treasurer, and nine (9) Board Members each of whom shall be appointed by the Commander-in-Chief, Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States in accordance with Section 615 of the By-Laws of the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States.

The VFW Council of Administration can amend the PAC's bylaws

ARTICLE XII - AMENDMENTS
These By-Laws may be amended by the Council of Administration.

I suggest they meet in emergency session and do just that.

The next National Convention should be a hoot. Get your motions ready

ARTICLE IV - DURATION
The VFW-PAC shall have perpetual existence, but may be dissolved by the National Convention of the Veterans of Foreign Wars.

Will Judge Doom bring The Dip?

Here is their criteria:

ARTICLE X - DISTRIBUTION OF FUNDS
In determining how funds shall be distributed, the committee shall consider the recommendations of the Director, each member of the Board of Directors, and other knowledgeable persons. Of primary consideration shall be the candidate's position and/or voting record on issues involving national defense and veterans legislation.
Additional factors include, but are not necessarily limited to:
A. The integrity and character of the candidate.
B. Whether the candidate holds a leadership or policy-shaping position in his party or on a congressional committee or is likely to hold such a position in the future;
C. The nature and strength of the candidate's opposition in primary or general elections;
D. Other sources of fnancial [sic] assistance available to the candidate.

I daresay some of their choices just don't measure up. Is removal for cause an option?
