15. They are obsessed with personal power; that's why they wanted

the office. They have no concept of being a public servant.

They want to be personally important and to have anvils to hold over people so they can feel "powerful."

Yet their positions are specifically defined and circumscribed; they are to represent the people, not themselves personally.
