This document outlines the political power structure in Egypt and maps the main power centers, including the hierarchy and ability to hire and fire. It discusses two potential outcomes depending on who wins the presidential election between Shafiq and Morsi. It notes that both candidates would do whatever it takes to dominate Egypt for a long period and that voting for who is less bad or who has not been tried before would be mistakes, as both options are really bad. It suggests voting to balance power and establish creative conflicts between the two main power centers.
