Why don't we vote for the next USAID Administrator

The anticipation and excitement has long since passed. There is still no USAID Administrator and many in the development community are concerned about the lack in leadership. Paul Farmer marked a clear example of how the vetting process got in the way of bringing in a candidate many supported. Nicholas Kristof in his blog suggested that we "throw the vetters overboard." MFAN has taken it into their own hands to conduct a public online vote for the next USAIDS Administrator. You can visit MFAN's website and vote yourself for who the next Administrator should be. In their blog, there is space to make comments on how you voted and why.
