The major problem... One of the major problems, for there are several... One of the many major problems with governing people is that of who you get to do it, or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them. To summarise, it is a well known and much lamented fact that those people who most want to rule are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarise the summary, anyone capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job. To summarise the summary of the summary, people are a problem.
And so this is the situation we find: a succession of DSU Presidents who so much enjoy the fun and palaver of being in power that they never really notice that they're not. And somewhere in the shadows behind them... who? Who can possibly rule if no-one who wants to can be allowed to?
