  • I wonder how sustainable it is when the person in the position only acts in self-interest. The paradox there is that the chair is not the actual position of power past a certain extent. It's also a burden because its existence relies on service to the class, not one participant of the class. So being self-interested gets you there with the promises of opportunities to enrich yourself but you get stuck because it necessitates enriching others as well. Someone like Trump can't do that. Therefore it's not a stable arrangement. He can end terms but he won't last long anyways.

    You really need an Obama to make no term limits work. Someone who plays for the team and navigate that fine line between the class and their own vanity.
