USA – -(Ammoland.com)- Hello AmmoLand News readers, my name is Edie Fleeman, I am running for re-election to the 2018 NRA Board of Directors.

I am a current NRA Board member, NRA Benefactor member and Nominating Committee candidate working tirelessly for our Second Amendment freedoms.

A right is not a right unless it is exercised which is why the recreational and competitive shooting sports are important to me. Introducing people to the shooting sports is where my heart lies. As an NRA Instructor and Level 2 Certified Coach in both rifle and shotgun, and NSSA Level 2 Instructor, I have coached at girls’ summer camp, junior club, collegiate team, local club, and Women On Target levels. Competed in the NRA Smallbore Rifle Championships for 40 years, earning five Women’s National Champion titles, and qualifying for the honorary Randle and Dewar teams over the years. Serving/served as Chairman or Vice Chairman of NRA Committees: Smallbore Rifle, Collegiate Programs, Competition Rules and Programs, Youth Programs, Air Gun, and Protest.

Avid supporter of NRA’s Women On Target Instructional Shooting Clinics; co-director of 36 local WOT Clinics introducing over 2,100 women to the shooting sports since 2008.

Edie is a very capable competitive shooter, a skilled and devoted instructor, and a firm, unshakable supporter of second amendment issues. She is personally engaging and charming. I cannot imagine a more suitable ambassador for the shooting sports and for the NRA. Please keep her on the NRA Board!! We need more like her to be the face of the NRA to the general public and to lawmakers..

Jeffersonian

Perhaps, but that doesn’t answer the questions: Does she oppose a “bump stock” ban? What is her position on Constitutional Carry? What is her position on “gun-free zones”? Will she work to repeal the Gun Control Act of 1968 and the National Firearms Act of 1934? Will she support the use of NRA’s legal resources to defend victims of kidnapping and robbery, like Shaneen Allen, Brian Aitken, and Meg Fellenbaum? After years, or even decades, of the NRA Board throwing many members under a fleet of figurative buses in the mistaken belief they would save a few, we need clear,… Read more »

Activism is crucial to our “freedoms” becoming truly free and Adam Kraut is the man who can rise to this challenge. Please vote for Adam Kruat and help the board set a truly pro 2A agenda.

I wish more Ladies would apply, not because that it could make Safety a forward looking item agenda, I call it common sence. However I wish that I could vote, but I am British who has lived in Belgium for the last thirty years, but I wish you all the best for your re-Election, Bon Chance Madame.

I live in N.J. where libtards run this shithole state , back in the 1990’s I had a legal problem with confiscation of my firearms by local police.Being an NRA member I contacted them told them my ploy and was told because it was not a grass roots case they could nothing but refer me to a $200.00 per hr lawyer in my area with no free consultation. Till this day the only thing I see the NRA doing in N.J. is ask us members for MONEY and do nothing to help change our draconian gun laws. The NJ2AS is… Read more »

Okay, she did a photo op with a country-club gun that probably cost more than most of us take home in a month.

So did Obama.

How does she feel about the AR15? Or Constitutional Carry? Or “gun-free zones”? Or as Wild Bill says, repeal of GCA68 and NFA34?

Reading things off a card isn’t good enough anymore. Mine will be another bullet-vote for Adam Kraut.

Bob Puzzles

If you’re a voting member and you want to see changes for the better and get rid of the dead wood bullet vote for Adam Kraut

Would you request, suggest and or even fight to repeal for the a Unconstitutional and abuse of power by denying law abiding citizens their 2nd Amendment rights NICS system? This question needs to be asked by everyone to everyone. NRA board members to the politicians.

Vanns40

As per Jeff Knox, “bullet vote Adam Kraut”. Change from within, one Board Member at a time!

Wild Bill

@Edie, “… the recreational and competitive shooting sports are important to me. ” is insufficient. Repeal of the NFA and GCA are necessary to getting back to our U.S. Constitution. What have you done to work for the repeal of these two unconstitutional acts of Congress?

Thomas McCoy

When the NRA rushed in to support the banning of bump fire stocks shortly after Las Vegas tragedy, I thought here we go again… just like the 1986 Hughes amendment. I remember at the time all I heard from the NRA was don’t worry we will fight it in the courts, it’s unconstitutional… and what happened, nothing. All they did was fundraise off of it. I agree with JMR, that’s why I joined GOA.If Adam does not make it I am done with the NRA.

JMR

The only one people should vote for is Adam Kraut, it’s clear the NRA has gone back to its pre 70’s stance and would rather give away our right then fundraise to line their pockets and do nothing about it.

I want to see a modern movement that not only keeps up with the anti gunners but brings us NEW pro 2A legislation.
