Lost/Lord of the flies paragraph

Hypothesize what might happen if Jack from lost, or Ralph from Lord of the Flies gained too much power.
                So far in the novel Lord of the flies, one the main characters, Ralph, has come out and has been elected as a leador. Very similar in the series Lost, Jack has started to prove himself and come out as a leador by saving many lives right after the crash. If both of these leadors maintain control and power, they may become corrupt, or they could be great leadors, there are many different possibilities.  I believe that if Jack from Lost gains too much power, he will make use of it effectivly not for him but for the poeple. So far jack has showed that he is selfless and looks out for other people before himself. I feel that he will not become corrupt with power. I cannot say the same about Ralph from Lord of the Flies though. Ralph has gained control after an election from the boys but he has shown that he is pretty disrespectful to others and he is still only a boy and I feel that he will not know what to do with power if he gains any.""They used to call me 'Piggy." Ralph shrieked with laughter. He jumped up. "Piggy! Piggy!"(11). Ralph has shown that he is disrespectful to others so in return they will not respect him as a leador. If Ralph continues his ways I am predicting that a revolution might happen. If Ralph gains too much power I am predicting that he will become corrupt with power.
