Pele syndrome

Megalomania; Extreme vanity and conceit; Pele syndrome is characterized by an inflated sense of self-esteem and overestimation by persons of their own powers.

An older name for the mental condition is narcissitic personality disorder. In extreme cases, a person with the Pele syndrome might refer to themselves in the third person (as Pele himself).
Muhammad Ali ("I am the greatest"), Cristiano Ronaldo ("I am rich, famous, and a great player") are the prime examples of people with the Pele syndrome.

Leaders of religious cults and dictators usually have the Pele syndrome.

Historically, Alexander the Great and Joseph Stalin are said to have the Pele syndrome.

The prime example of someone with the Pele syndrome is Pele himself. In the last 40 years he has regularly come out with such pronoucements as "I am the greatest", "I am still the greatest", "There will never be another Pele", and the nugget "Every kid around the world who plays soccer wants to be Pele".

Pelosi Doctrine

opposing the impeachment of a corrupt president in order to weaken the president's party in an upcoming election
There are many reasons why George W Bush deserved to be impeached, his outrageous abuses of power,illegal warrantless wire taps (some of these were U.S. soldiers in Iraq calling home to their families), extraordinary renditions, torturing P.O.W.s etc. In the 2006 election voters soundly rejected the radical Bush agenda, but when Nancy Pelosi became Speaker Of The House she said impeachment was off the table. Keeping Bush in office severely weakened the Republican party and helped the Democrats win the White House and gain seats in Congress in the 2008 election. This is the Pelosi Doctrine.
