<perhaps a better question you need to ask yourself is has the current BoD's demonstrated they are qualified to make sound decisions about the financials, acquisitions and the market?>
Since you suggest that poor decisions made in these areas are perhaps the reason we are where we are, how will the new BoD member be any better than the present ones in making decisions in these important areas? Are you suggesting that he/she be proficient in one of them? If so, I agree with you.
