He was first elected to the Board in 1995 and has been re-elected continuously since.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Nugent, his resignation is due to his becoming the national spokesman for <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hunternation.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hunter Nation<\/a><\/strong>. His contract with them requires exclusivity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hunternation.org\/hunter-nation-names-ted-nugent-national-spokesperson\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hunter Nation posted this on their website<\/a><\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Kansas City\u2026Hunter Nation, the fastest growing grassroots organization in the country dedicated to protecting the rights of hunters, inked a historic partnership with Ted Nugent by naming him their National Spokesperson in a deal announced today.<\/p><p>Hunter Nation President and CEO, Luke Hilgemann said, \u201cToday marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Hunter Nation.&nbsp; Ted Nugent has been an icon in the hunting and outdoor community for decades and no one has fought harder to protect the rights of hunters than Uncle Ted.&nbsp; We are beyond excited to officially partner with Ted to help us grow our army of hunters, increase our impact on policy, and continue to activate millions of American hunters to vote their values and protect our traditions \u2013 basically continuing the legacy Uncle Ted has built as the Ultimate BloodBrother!\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cBeing addicted to truth, logic, commonsense and the American Way for 72.6 years, I am compelled to stand up and shout it out loud and proud from every mountaintop I ascend every day,\u201d asserts Nugent. \u201cFreedom is not free and I want to earn it to the best of my ability and I am excited to be working with the Hunter Nation team to do just that.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>I will admit that I am not familiar with Hunter Nation so I can&#8217;t say whether it is a good more or not for Ted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, I have long held that there really is not much of a place for celebrities on the Board of Directors. I much rather see work horses than shoe horses on it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, any celebrity or really any one with deep pockets who remains on the Board is doing so at their own risk. If I were their risk manager or their attorney I&#8217;d be advising them to run and run fast. The liability issues surrounding the Board&#8217;s fiduciary duties and their lack of attention to them are just too great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>UPDATE: <a href=\"https:\/\/thereload.com\/ted-nugent-resigns-from-nra-board\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Stephen Gutowski of The Reload had the email<\/a><\/strong> sent out by John Frazer to the Board.
