Don't bother taking the time to offer your services to the board,  ladies.  
Unless you are a CPA and an IBCLC, or a PhD researcher in  lactation, they 
won't even bother looking at you.
 
Of the 10 positions available, 9 of them are preselected by their  
professional associations, e.g. The American Academy of Pediatrics, LLLI, ILCA  (you 
need to be a board member), Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine, WIC, Royal  
College of Midwives, the Canadians, Europeans and Asians come up with their own  
people, ABA designates their own person.  That leaves the public  member.  The 
last one was the editor of Birth magazine.  The current  one is Jim Akre.  Who 
is that guy on the Sopranos that says  "forgettaboutit"?
