Good Morning, Raph

re: "You have created a conflict of interests here.  People who don't 
set aside their own ambition are favoured."

Can you supply a rationale to support this statement?

Since the human dynamics are the most important aspect of any electoral 
process, I'd like to understand the forces that would cause aspirants to 
set aside their own ambition.  When a group selects one of three people 
to represent the other two, what human dynamic will thwart the natural 
tendency of each to pursue their own interest?
