hostile takeover of the Sierra Club?

I believe the Sierra Club does some international stuff. They made a decision not to get involved in immigration issues a few years ago, but there is a faction intent on changing this. According to an e-mail I received from interested parties, one of the current directors (Paul Watson, an animal-rights activist) said: "We're only three directors away from controlling the board. And, once we get three more directors elected...[We'll] change the entire agenda of that organization."
