You can ask the Department of Commerce about me coming to their rescue. I am not sure they view me as their savior.

If you don't like the US role, would it not be more constructive to make a specific proposals regarding how to detach the Department of Commerce from ICANN and the IANA contract? (as some of us have been advocating for years). If you don't do this, would it be fair to conclude that you are more interested in public displays and posturing than in actually making things better?

Are there any specific reform proposals to be found floating amongst the rhetorical perorations? Try communicating those and see if you get a better reception.

Some of us do find your neo-DeGaullist Americo-phobic expressions quite entertaining, even riotously comical at times, but we read the list for other purposes.
