Personally, I'm not a big expert on this subject so would be OK with switching me out with another senator with more expertise, if anyone is willing.

I'm happy to take over, if no other Senators want the job

The whole idea of having Tmth on the committee is that he's somewhat of a "swing voter," given that I know he expressed concerns about this to me previously, but ended up voting in favor of the bill.

I presume Truman sides more with Blair's take in the debate than Classic, and of course Classic sides more with Classic, I think we should have someone who is in the middle of those two points of view.

One person who seems undecided and willing to listen to both sides of the issue--a dark horse pick if there ever was one--is Southern Gothic. Unless you think someone else is better, or he is inadequate, or if Tmth reconsiders, I suggest you go with him.

If there is a strong desire to have me on this committee, I will serve. I'd also personally be very comfortable with Southern Gothic being on it. Though to my understanding, this committee's actions won't decide anything. It'll just present the facts and then Congress/President will still have the ultimate say.

I'd be more than happy to join the committee. I have a background in international affairs and foreign policy, and am personally uncommitted to either side of the debate. I have no current bias regarding the Muslim Brotherhood and am more than willing to hear both sides of the debate.

With no objections, SouthernGothic has been added to replace me. Senators now may vote on the President's redraft.

This has enough votes to pass. Senators have 24 hours to change their votes.

The redraft has passed, and pending the House and presidents formal approval, will be officially enacted.
