Here, although the suggestions in the Bernews thread (and whatever gets submitted by email) may be considered ludicrous by some, it stands to reason that Ms. Pickering and the staff that works with her will use a fine toothed comb to separate the wheat from the chaff.

Good intentions poorly thought through if that is indeed the criteria for nomination. Just read below how silly the nominations are going to get with NO criteria set.

How an expat can rally the masses to march against the very bill that would have legitimized him in this Country only to have the same people clamor for it’s legalization when he loses his permit is truly, truly indeed fascinating.
There are no other words for it…… well there are but lets leave it as ‘fascinating’.

The facinating people for good reasons usually go about their lives in a quiet unassuming way.

The others are always looking for an open mike or a pulpit to gain attention from.

So it could be an entertainer, athlete, businessperson, person in the community, no restriction (except being either Bermudian or living in Bermuda).
