There is irrefutable evidence that the VAST MAJORITY of current General Authorities have served previously as
1. Bishop
2. Stake President
and often as
3. Mission President
So even though it isn't explicitly church policy, it's more or less the de facto order of things.

You continue to note that there aren't enough African American members with experience to serve as a GA. I asked what experience was necessary, and you continued to bring up service as a stake president. I pointed out that there are several serving as a stake president, at which point you then said that serving as a stake president doesn't "qualify" you.
I think in your efforts to apologize for the absence of any African Americans in church leadership, you are going around in circles.
