Maybe this guy will throw his hat into the mix! He'll fit right in. http://www.wjhg.com/home/headlines/Dothan-Superintendent-of-Education-Suspended-280606152.html?device=phone&c=y
So just like in other businesses where the top exec can be fired, the hired superintendent here was removed by the school board. It would have been a much more arduous process if this guy had been elected. Electing insures that if the wrong person is in the superintendent's chair, they will be sitting there a lot longer than if they had to be accountable to a board.
