Consider a ruler who comes to power with good intentions and great abilities. Assume that he accomplishes much for his country during his first term (or his first two or three terms if the constitution allows it).
试想一位才能卓越的统治者胸怀治国雄心上台执政。假设他在自己的第一个任期内（或者包含宪法许可下最初的一两次连任内）为国家做了许多实事，但他却过于恋栈——正如乌干达总统约韦里·穆塞韦尼（Yoweri Museveni）。他强制修改宪法条文好让自己能继续连任下去。然后此人开始操纵选举和镇压反对派。而自己及其亲属则向海外转移了巨额财富。
