Well, in the context of having a candidate being an essential part of
the election committee, Dave Neary asked: "What ever happened to trust?"

Apparently, in your own opinion, there are people in the foundation
tahat are not trusted by some (and who have run for election in the
past). So why should one trust a candidate who is also heavily involved
in the running of the election?
