  By this logic I can start emailing whomever I want whatever I
want and claim to speak for the list?

  "Dr. Mr. President/Prime Minister, the list has decided that you are
an undesirable and is mounting an assasination campaign?"

  You seem to have decided that since it's a lot of work to actually
ASK what people beleive, you can just guess and then speak for all
of us. In reality there is a third choice that is very obvious,
don't.
