Let's see that DSM-IV criteria...

According to the DSM-IV, the disorder begins by early adulthood and is indicated by the subject exhibiting at least five of the following:
1. An exaggerated sense of self-importance (CHECK!)
2. Preoccupation with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or
ideal love (How about preoccupation with fantasies of being morally and/or intellectually superior to the rest of the rabble as well as being "loved" by France.)
3. Believes he is "special" and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (CHECK!)
4. Requires excessive admiration (Translates into requires high poll numbers and approval ratings...and to be loved by the French.)
5. Has a sense of entitlement (CHECK!)
6. Selfishly takes advantage of others to achieve his own ends (Translates to selfishly takes advantage of his occupation (college professor, NYT reporter, etc.) to achieve his own ends.)
7. Lacks empathy (A human fetus is equivalent to a parasite you say? CHECK!)
8. Is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him (HELL YEAH CHECK)
9. Shows arrogant, haughty, patronizing, or contemptuous behaviors or attitudes (BIG TIME CHECK!)

I shall be writing an essay on the implications soon.
