This is an ad, not an article.[edit]

It's not objective POV at all, "As business leaders, the members of the Council feel responsibility and have the determination to improve Florida." Sure they do. Actual business leaders have no interest in "improving Florida" but would instead seek to slant Florida's policies to benefit their business. Similarly "Membership is by invitation from the existing council members, who select recognized and successful leaders from all types of Florida businesses, not elected public service. Those chosen must demonstrate a commitment to the state and believe in the goals of the council." is stated as if it were fact, when it is merely the official policy of the organization. 76.126.215.43 (talk) 06:30, 9 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your assertion that the membership guidelines are the Council's policy is true, so I changed the text to include the source and the fact that the council claims this to be fact. Mgrē@sŏn 12:46, 9 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
