> the people debating the issue seem to be grossly intellectually unqualified to be deciding anything regarding the education of others

I'd say they have the one qualification that actually matters here: they were elected specifically for this purpose by the residents of the school district.

Consider that these people are also likely eligible for jury duty, which could very well mean that they would be considered qualified to literally condemn someone to death. Thought of in that light, removing a book from the local school's curriculum seems downright inconsequential.
