Exactly. The problem with Galera, who may have been the best candidate, is the conflict he helped to create by teaming with the governor's wife to get rid of Matayoshi. If he knew that he was going to apply for the job he should have recused himself from the process to remove the then superintendent. BTW, there was nothing legally stopping him for remaining a candidate and I don't blame the Castle Foundation from not wanting to participate in a rigged process.
