What I don't understand is why some of the leaders of our groups, who actually have very little power nationally, and are pretty much shunned by any political establishment are such egotistical jerks, (Gheen, Gilcrest, Simcox, Nightingale) why so much infighting?

Because of all those things you mentioned about us having no money and no political capitol; We can't develop a working government within our ranks. We end up with a klingon type of assencion system. Each wannabe leader takes whatever opportunity that presents itself to beat down the competition for the top dog spot. It's pretty much that simple. You've got a bunch of power lusting egotists and rag tag volunteer army, and no infrastructure to manage either. It's a catalyst for dictatorship unfortunately
