Robert J. Kerns, Esquire Chair, Montgomery County Republican Committee 314 E. Johnson Highway, Suite #200 Norristown, PA 19401 Dear Bob: The MCRC Bylaws obligate you to conduct an Organizational Meeting of the MCRC Committee-People on May 15, 2012 (noting election-day is 4/24/2012). [Article IV, Section 1: Organizational Meeting of MCRC. In 2008, 2010, and in each Presidential Election year thereafter, there shall be an organizational meeting of MCRC on the third Thursday immediately following the Primary Election in which Committee-People are elected (the Organizational Meeting)]. You have refused to uphold this black-letter mandate, claiming this constitutes a typographical error, because any such reorganizational meeting should be held immediately after the CommitteePeople themselves have been elected (during a Gubernatorial year), thereby mirroring the four-year terms that Committee-People now are serving. [Were Committee-People to acquiesce currently, you could later claim they ratified your serving an unprecedented six-year term.] You articulated this posture in the Philadelphia Inquirer and at the 12/15/2011 Upper Dublin Republican Committee meeting which I attended [the contents of which were also quite unsettling, vide infra]. Therefore, you threaten to violate your major responsibility as MCRC-Chair, namely, to uphold the Bylaws. To amend the Bylaws this year to comport with efforts to cancel a mandated election this year, you would have to convene the CommitteePeople, oxymoronically. Yet, were you to call a meeting for this purpose, you could not preclude the Committee-Peopleinitiallyfrom conducting a plebiscite on MCRC leaders. A reasonable counter-interpretation is that, during a transition-period after enactment of these new Bylaws, currently-serving leaders could be subject one last time to reassessment at this two-year intervalas had been

traditionalnotwithstanding the neatness of your desire to forestall this opportunity. What should be accomplished concomitantly, to satisfy your newly-stated intent, is amendment of the Bylaws in 2012 to implement the quadrennial elections process in 2014. There is no reason to block holding a meeting, merely because the electorate would not, itself, have been newly-elected [during the recently-completed primary voting]. This approach would rectify alleged-oversight without violating the language in the Bylaws, a resolution of this self-manufactured conundrum that youas an attorneyshould now welcome. Your reticence to call this meeting reflects a level of arrogance/aloofness that true-Republicans decry when evinced by incumbent-Democrats and RINO-Republicans [noting recess appointments of POTUS-#44, sidestepping Constitutionally-mandated Senate confirmationwhile Congress admittedly isnt in recess]. You were not elected to a position of Imperial Chairperson, and you should dig-deep to ID your humility. As you know, after the 2011-Elections, significant support among the Committee-People arose for invoking the following clause in the MCRC Bylaws [Article XSection 3. Special Meetings Called by Members]: Should two hundred (200) members of MCRC present a signed written petition to the Chairperson requesting that the Chairperson call a meeting and stating the purpose for which the meeting is to be called, the Chairperson shall call and schedule such a meeting within twenty (20) calendar days of the date on which the Chairperson receives such petition. Should the Chairperson fail or refuse to call and schedule such a meeting and send out notice thereof within five (5) calendar days of the date on which the Chairperson receives such petition, the meeting may be called by the petitioning members by giving notice to the members of the MCRC at least seven (7) calendar days prior to the date of the meeting, which notice shall set forth the purpose for which the meeting is being called. I have felt that going public could unduly embarrass you [and the MCRC], but Im also told that you have rebuffed entreaties to mirror the honorable conduct of defeated generals throughout history: resignation. Thus, in lieu of aggressively seeking to follow this petition-route [to yield an earlymeeting], I act unilaterally. By remitting this letter, I am running interference for my colleagues, forestalling eruption of divisiveness. Know, however, that you now function under a spectre of being compelled by the Courthouse to perform your solemn duty [if voluntarism fails]. America is a nation that honors rule-of-law; no one is exempt.

MCRCs Status The MCRC is both broken and broke. The GOP lost the 2011 Courthouse elections [commissioner-majority and most row-officers], and the MCRC hasnt paid small-business vendors [while election-day checks sent to Committee-People reportedly bounced]; the stated-debt is currently $40,000, but recent reports suggestcontrary to your pledgeit persists. Such gross fiscal mismanagement has embarrassed yourself, the MCRC, and MontCo Republicans. Under your aegis, key-leaders arent on speakingterms; for example, Im told Bruce Castor asked other row-officer candidates not to attend a planning meeting you had called last spring. Let us test your self-imbued confidence that you retain support; this would give you an opportunity to defend your tenure, subjecting it to the scrutiny of those [such as myself] who have supported you vigorously during the past decade. I fear the MCRCunder your continued leadership will be unable to yield substantively improved results during this years crucial Presidential Election year. UDRC Pledges Unfulfilled 12/8/2011 Event During this meetingattended by only 18 people because it had been hastily-calledyou said this was the fourth such regional event on what might be termed your apology tour. To-date, you have failed to give follow-up information to these attendees regarding concerns that you claimed you would address ASAP. You claimed to be open to change but, when specific ideas were raised, you kept defending the status quo. For example, when the idea of conducting open primaries was raised, you said this would make your job easier because you wouldnt have to raise money for them; you added, however, that you have not seen evidence that they work. I noted that Mike Fitzpatrick adhered to his pledge two years ago to honor an open primary in Bucks County for the 8th Congressional District, an effort that allowed him to unify support from leaders of the TEA [Taxed Enough Already] Party Movement yielding him a strong fall campaign. Predictably, you concluded that because this had been the first time such a concern had been raisedyou would discuss it with others rather than endorsing it globally. When you were reminded of the definition of stupidity/insanity [doing the same thing repeatedly while expecting different results], you claimed the current process had worked in the past and, thus, change would potentially waste a lot of time and effort. And you also pledged to contact Ms. Becker immediately to re-initiate regular-distribution of move-in lists. {Crickets.}

You were pointedly reminded by numerous speakers of Bruce Castors ineffectiveness during the past four years as minority Commissioner. His arrogance was manifest throughout the political campaign as well, recalling that blind-adherence to his polling-data [claiming his positive namerecognition would prevail] was reflexly opposed by many who heard his 4/14/2011 presentation to the Republican Jewish Coalition. Indeed, when he lamented to the Philadelphia Inquirer that he had not been fourth [behind Jenny Brown], you were asked to invite him to act upon his desires, for you concurred it would be highly-desirable to ask Jenny Brown to be in-place for the entire new session (a role she has effectively played in Lower Merion). You said that was a universal theme you have been hearing in these meetings and that, therefore, you were going to invite him to step-down and you also said that options are available to force him to abdicate. Since that time, you have remained silent as Castor has morphed into the Matthews-like politician that both of you had condemned during the past four years; he voted for a tax-hike and lunched with the Democrats following their swearing-in. What portends is a complete dissolution of all shreds of Republican principles. While MCRC Committee-People pressed for meaningful change ASAPnot in the spring of 2012, following your MontCo meetings which now extend to three-plus months after the electionyou demurred, despite the claim that action is sorely needed because the voters must be shown that the MCRC is listening. Why exude a faux openness posture, and then proceed to shoot-down all subsequent suggestions? Interventions As you know, two meetings were held of Concerned Republican CommitteePeople in December, 2011. Committee-People have been surveyed regarding their level of discontent with your ongoing leadership. Im told you have been informed that you could be invited to attend a future meeting of this informal group which emerged prior to the Endorsement Convention earlier in 2011 [promoting Ms. Harper]. Were you to speak candidly to this group ASAP, perhaps you could recruit aid in an effort to achieve meaningful process-oriented improvement in 2012. This meeting would be superimposed upon your apology tour. You should be eager to explain why your ten-point planfocused on voterregistration, as per your vacuous handout [Road to Victory for 2012 and Beyond]contains specificity that is preferable to that of dynamic outreach and fundraising proposals of your critics, already initiated countywide. Recalling what happened with Bruce Castor, it ironically states we will NOT lay down as a Party to an individuals ego or agenda. Because this is
4

precisely what you did during the Row-Officer elections [with your inaction having extended to others whom we were told to trust, such as the BrownCastor Campaign Chair, Robert Adshead, Esquire], your posture undermined our quality-candidates to the detriment of MontCos future. If this actually comprised a memo to self, it only began to sketch-out a detailed actionplan which you should already have sculpted and implemented, for many sorely-needed improvements are intuitive. Inexplicably, your approach failed to addresslet alone remedypast-errors of MCRC leadership. Conclusion You resist holding an Organizational Meeting and pledged on 12/8/2011 to send a legal-letter summarizing your posture within a month [detailing the analysis acquired from two attorneys]; you missed the deadline. [Indeed, on 11/30/2011, during a meeting of Areas 4,6,8, you issued an identical documentation pledge.] And you plan to continue visiting municipal-GOP entitieswith that of ATRO scheduled for 2/1/2012, desperately trying throughout to remain the Chair. But the MCRC cannot await either receipt of your apologia [regardless of how you may potentially claim that a typists fingers slipped] or completion of your meetings with Committee-People [in Area Meeting groupings]. Strategizing for a fresh-start must be initiated ASAP under invigorated leadershipif the accelerating trend towards complete devolution of a once-glorious MCRC in 2012 is to be reversed. Pivotal to building success will be appreciating the need to prepare an emasculated MCRC to run a marathon, not a sprint. Some of us remain Proud Republicans. Thus, I ask that you confirm whether you will or will not call a 2012 Organizational Meeting. If you fail to reply [and contradict my assertions] within a fortnight, I will interpret this as an admission that I am correct, and that you will deny my request to convene an Organizational Meeting on 5/15/2012. If that is soand if you continue to fail to uphold your explicit promises [such as the operational pledges to the UDRC] I may need to restrategize [with or without assistance from others] to fulfill Committeeman responsibilities. Appended are three items that relate to the thrust of this letter: [1]a news-article that corroborates points made herein; [2]documentation of how you have spurned invokingat no financial riskquality input regarding the backgrounds of the row-officers (as assiduously composed by Robert R. Guzzardi, Esquire); and [3]a draft-petition that has NOT yet been circulated to any of the MCRC Committee-People. Sincerely,

Montco GOP dissidents want party chairman ousted

By Tom Infield, Inquirer Staff Writer A group of Republican committee members in Montgomery County, unhappy with recent election losses, is considering an effort to oust party chairman Bob Kerns. Our purpose is to return Montgomery County to its prominence as a Republican County, said Joe Meo, a lawyer from Whitemarsh Township. The question is, who is best to lead us? We dont like to lose. Meo said 33 committee members attended a meeting of dissidents Saturday at Whitemarsh Valley Country Club. The group intends to hold a second meeting Saturday. It then plans to contact scores of GOP committee members to see if it has enough backing to challenge Kerns. It would take signatures of 200 of the 805 committee members to force a party convention, at which a leadership vote could be taken. Kerns, in an interview Monday, said he was not pleased with the Nov. 8 election results either. For the first time in more than a century, Democrats took control of the Norristown courthouse by winning two of three seats on the Board of Commissioners. But Kerns said the dissidents, who call themselves Concerned Republican Committee People of Montgomery County, were a small minority in the party. The group wants to create a division, he said, wants to create a problem. Kerns was elected just last year to a four-year term as chairman. His opponents say, however, that there is a glitch in the party bylaws that could be read as requiring a new election in a presidential election year, which 2012 is. Meo called the bylaws ambiguous. But Kerns, also a lawyer, said he was certain they would give him the right to serve until 2014. We got elected for four years, he said of his leadership team. I am not holding a convention this coming year, to hold an election, when I am elected for four years.

The MontCo GOP has been at war with itself for several years. It was split in the spring primary election between those who favored Commissioner Bruce Castor for reelection and those who backed former State Rep. Kate Harper. Castor won in the general election. But Jenny Brown, his running mate, lost. Come next month, Castor will sit on the commissioners board with Democrats Josh Shapiro and Leslie Richards. Meo said he did not know if the dissidents had the support to take on Kerns, but he said they intended to find out in coming weeks. If the committee wants new management, he said, we will pursue that option. Meo said that last winters party convention gave some idea of the level of dissident feeling. He said 390 members - close to half - voted to endorse Harper for commissioner instead of Castor. Castor himself has often been at odds with Kerns. Kerns said that, since the election, he has received strong indication of support from the partys executive committee and from several area groups he has met with. One issue against him has been the partys debt, which he said he has been paying down and which now stands at about $40,000. Kerns said that amount was not bad considering that the party and its candidates for commissioner spent about $1.5 million on the election. I have to go out and start raising some money, which I am doing, Kerns said. By the end of the year, we will have the large part of it paid off. Bob Asher, a longtime GOP fund-raiser and national party committeeman from Montgomery County, also has often been at odds with Kerns. He responded no comment when asked how he felt about the dissidents effort. He said he was focused, instead, on the presidential election, along with next years contests for statewide offices and congressional and legislative races. Meo said that, if an election for party chairman were to be held, he himself would not be a candidate.

Illustration of Rejection of Information Regarding Row-Officers Your even failed to inform Committee-People of the unique strengths of RowOfficer candidates [after Robert R. Guzzardi, Esquire, a private citizen, emailed their detailed rsums both to you and to Ms. Tressler]. Instead, you actively/inexplicably resisted any such assistance [even when its author offered to generate such blast e-mails from your office]. Compare/contrast your version of candidate-summaries with Guzzardis [which remain on his Liberty-Blog], after he had interviewed them {photographs and hyperlinks omitted}: MCRCs Rendition District Attorney: Risa Ferman Under her leadership, the District Attorneys office has achieved a 98% conviction rate.

Moon Ahn for Clerk of Courts has an impressive record of accomplishment and an immigrant who wanted something better and was willing to work for it. The Brown/Castor campaign is beginning to catch fire. Brown/Castor have taken positions on core issues, including, Referendum for Radio Bond of $50 million dollars when the County has historically high debt. Josh Shapiro has a proven and public record, identical to former Governor Rendells record [Spend, Borrow and Tax] and his allegiance to the public service unions which have driven up cost of government for The Forgotten Taxpayer and the building trades whose insistence on Prevailing Wage adds 10% to 30% additional cost to all government funded projects in Pennsylvania, every school, every library, every courthouse, everything.

District Attorney: Risa Ferman {deferred, noting that she was running unopposed} Clerk of Courts: Moon Ahn He wanted something better and was willing to work for it. Moon Ahn, Esq. Lifelong Republican First Generation Immigrant Candidate for MontCo Clerk of Courts. Like many of our parents and grandparents, Moon Ahn and his family came to America because they wanted something better and was willing to work for it. Times Herald Jenny DeHuff Sunday, June 05, 2011 (with video) NORRISTOWN Moon Ahn came to the U.S. when he was 14. Three universities and three degrees later, and he maintains his own private law practice in Lansdale. Now, he crosses the divide into political life, with a bid for Montgomery County Clerk of Courts. [http://www.timesherald.com/article/20110603/NEWS01/306039977] Ahn, a lifelong Republican, sat down with Times Herald Editor Stan Huskey for a recent broadcast of Behind the Headlines: Politically Direct, to explain his plans to streamline the clerks office and identify areas of savings within the department. He began working for the Montgomery County District Attorneys office in 2000. Controller: Stewart Greenleaf, Jr. {deferred, perhaps due to alreadyestablished name-recognition} Coroner: Dr. Gordon Clement Before they care what you know, they have to know you care. Not only does Gordon Clement, M.D., have superior qualifications for the job of MontCo Coroner, he reminds us that one of the roles of Coroner is to remember those people and families who have been left behind. Gordon Clement is the child of immigrants who came to America because they wanted something better and were willing to work for it. Expertise and skill are critical to getting a result but they are not enough. The patient, the client, the customer has to believe that you know what he or she needs. It is a lot more than skill, or expertise or a product. All are in the service of an individual with all his and her complexity. I have met Dr. Clement who is truly a gentle man, compassionate and a super nice guy. Dr. Clement is exceptionally well qualified to be Montgomery Countys Coroner. Every Vote Counts: Dr. Clement is out meeting voters. In 2007, he lost by 586 out of 148,360 votes demonstrating that every vote counts. Coroner

Prothonotary: Bill Donnelly {deferred, perhaps due to already-established name-recognition} Recorder of Deeds: Nancy Becker The Recorder of Deeds Office is one of core functions of County government. Nancy Becker has an established and well-recognized record of fiscal common sense, technological innovations and modernization, and service to the citizen-consumer. It is heartening to see the Brown/Castor campaign support this excellent candidate. Register of Wills: Patricia Mosesso Patricia Mosesso President MorganWentworth LLC Legal Placement has an impressive record of private, small business entrepreneur meeting a payroll, maintaining accounting records. She has had experience managing a $14 million-dollar budget and in cutting expenditures which requires setting priorities. I hope she and the other row officer candidates will embrace the idea of Checkbook Online which Lower Merion, as per Commissioner Jenny Brown, implemented. Sheriff: Eileen Behr {deferred, perhaps because of incumbency and not having met her} Treasurer: Chuck Wilson Chuck Wilson, Certified Public Accountant, and is what you would expect, unpretentious, down to earth, a bit shy, and an aura of reliable, solid, quiet competence. As Towamencin Township Supervisor, Chuck Wilson and the Republican Supervisors put the Townships checkbook online and has a record of fiscal common sense. Commonwealth Court: Ann Covey The Commonwealth Court has jurisdiction over all Pennsylvanias Regulatory Agencies, including Workers Compensation, Unemployment Compensation as well as the Department of Revenue. Anne Covey is not only highly qualified but a super nice person. This is significant because so many judges become arrogant when given the awesome power that a judge has in a Courtroom. The decisions of Commonwealth Court, affect 100s of 1000s of Pennsylvanians, unlike other courts that affect the litigants and set a precedent. The decisions and opinions of a judge of the Commonwealth Court have far reaching impact on many lives.

PETITION OF COMMITTEE MEMBERS OF THE MONTGOMERY COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE (MCRC) TO THE MCRC CHAIRPERSON FOR THE CALLING OF A SPECIAL MEETING [PURSUANT TO ARTICLE X., SECTION 3 OF THE MCRC BYLAWS] To: Robert Kerns, MCRC Chairman From: MCRC Committee-People [Petition-Signers] Dear Mr. Chairman: We are concerned that the MCRCunder your continued leadershipwill not be able to yield results during next years crucial Presidential Election year that will improve upon those of 2011. Furthermore, we feel the major intervention you have proposed during recent meetings with the MCRC Committee-Peopleas detailed in your four-page handoutentails implementation of a ten-point plan which focuses on increased voter-registration; no alteration in the approach of MCRC leadership is addressed therein, and no remedy to correct past-error is included. For example, it states we will NOT lay down as a Party to an individuals ego or agenda. Yet, we feel this is precisely what you did during the Row-Officer elections, to the detriment both of quality-candidates (about whom we had to learn on our own) and of MontCos future. Indeed, if this actually comprised a memo to self, it only began to sketch-out an action-plan. During your thinly-veiled apology tour, you have claimed the Bylaws erroneously state a reorganizational meeting is to be held during a Presidential [rather than Gubernatorial] year; you claim this is merely a typographical error to be explained-away in a future legal-letter. Yet, we can await completion of neither effort [the tour and the apologia], because we must start strategizing for a fresh-start ASAP if we are to reverse the devolution of a once-glorious MCRC. Therefore, we expect you either to honor this petition or to do the honorable thing on your own, noting behavior of defeated generals throughout the millennia. You do not merit a 6-year term, the anticipated outcome under the current Bylaws if no Organizational Meeting is held in 2012. The MCRC Bylaws [Article XSection 3. Special Meetings Called by Members] state: Should two hundred (200) members of MCRC present a signed written petition to the Chairperson requesting that the Chairperson call a meeting and stating the purpose for which the meeting is to be called, the Chairperson shall call and schedule such a meeting within twenty (20) calendar days of the date on which the Chairperson receives such petition. Should the Chairperson fail or refuse to call and schedule such a meeting and send out notice thereof within five (5) calendar days of the date on which the Chairperson receives such petition, the meeting may be called by the petitioning members by giving notice to the members of the MCRC at least seven (7) calendar

13
