Because, you know, I like power and influence and making other people do my work for me.
But I'm really lazy. I don't think I could keep up appearance properly, either.
Slytherin is painted as being OMG THE BIG BAD, which is kind of better than Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw, which are barely mentioned at all. Although I think we see more non-Slytherin than Slytherin students. Most of the House S students we see are Draco, Crabbe, Goyle, and Pansy (kind of). They're the only ones that stick out, anyway. But Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw kids keep popping up. So we have all this bad publicity about Slytherin, but see very few Slytherin students... and are told very little non-Sorting Hat info about Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff, but they have fleshed out non-antagonist Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff characters.
