If a corporation has by-laws: for share owners rights to nominate a person for board of 
directors. Can a corporation use a committee to deny nomination. I think the board or 
committee does not have the power to over ride the bylaws.
Articles of incorporation and by-laws are superior to any board,or sub committee in power. 
Is this a fact? So what is the question about proxy that we can not answer for over 70 
years.
 As just a stock holder in corporations at this time I have reviewed some letters 
addressing this issue of a proxy. I find most complaint about stock holder rights to elect 
board members were made by board members,is this a conflict.

                                                                                                    
little man running for board.

p.s. reason for money missing from corporations was not the stockholder. It can't be 
because we put the money in.
