I should also mention that I have the fortunate happenstance to view tapes of the Virginia and Mountain Iron School Board meetings. Each rotate Chairman every year. A good move which we should have been doing long ago.

Now, in the corporate world, where I came from, people in key positions were required to take vacations. Someone would fill in for them. It wasn't so much that the company wanted you to take time off with your family, it was more to see if you were up to shenanigans in your job.

Now, if Bobby holds the position each year, he could set up side deals that would go by unnoticed, since another board member doesn't take a turn at the gavel. I'm not saying Bobby was dealing under the table, but there has to be a reason why he covets the position each year...and board members give it to him. If other larger districts can rotate chairmen, why can't we?
