AFA & FDA: Is this the best strategy?

The Audism-Free Association (AFA) recently circulated a petition to encourage the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to begin an independent investigation into the effectiveness of the cochlear implant for young Deaf children. While I support this idea of an independent investigation, I wonder if the FDA is the right people to be asking to do this. In this post, I discuss some reasons why, and suggest some additional pathways that AFA might take in order to achieve their goal of getting an independent investigation done.
