It’s very understandable for mosdos to honor those who support them, they need the money after all and honoring people seems to be working for them as a way to bring in the desperately needed dollars. Personally, I don’t get why someone craves the honor, but after giving of a lot of effort or money to a mosdos I can see why some may want the acknowledgement.
I never voted for who the “machers” decided the community should vote for, who cares what they say? That the majority of people do follow like sheep whatever these machers tell them to, is not these “machers” problem, it’s the people’s problem, unless they actually do agree with whom they were told to vote for … But you certainly don’t have to vote for politicians because others decided for you whom to vote for, just do what you think is right. It is more problematic the fact that frum people endorse politicians who stand for issues that are against Torah values.
In any case, what exaclty does being honored and who gets to endorse politicians have anything to with being frum?!
