Foreign Service Challenges

I got an email on Saturday announcing that Daniel Hirsch, who co-founded Concerned Foreign Service Officers, a group that's focused on the security clearance process at the State Department, is going to run for Vice President of the American Foreign Service Association. AFSA's spent a lot of time lobbying Congress to increase appropriations for staffing at State, and their leadership has found allies in Sen. George Voinovich and the American Academy of Diplomacy. I don't particularly know if Hirsch has a shot in his campaign, but it's interesting to see the groups' competing agendas play out in an election. If anyone's seen campaign literature or emails, send 'em my way.
