As
2004 RPAC Chair, I worked closely with Vicki and found her
political savvy and knowledge of Congressional and Senate races
all over the country is second to none. She helped guide us
through an important election year by basing each strategic
decision on how the race would impact the REALTOR® legislative
agenda. This is the kind of leadership we need in these
difficult times. Vicki has experience, dedication and vision
for our industry – we must get her elected First Vice President
of NAR in 2008. —

In working with
Vicki over the past 10 years, I have found her to be a true
leader. In 2003, I chaired NAR’s REALTOR® Political Involvement
Committee (RPIC) and she was our liaison to the Executive
Committee. She worked hard for us and made many contributions
to our committee and work groups. Again and again she displayed
great leadership ability and unselfish involvement. With her
enthusiasm, knowledge, and dedication, Vicky is a proven
leader. She is my choice for 2010 NAR President.

In my past 15 years of involvement with NAR, I have grown to
know Vicki in many capacities. Being politically involved, I
had much in common with Vicki in the political arena. While
serving on a special work group for the Political Communications
Committee (now RPIC), I had the opportunity to see her in action
as the Liaison to State and Political Issues Group. That is when
I first saw her leadership abilities! She is energetic,
intelligent and a proven leader.
