Hmmm ... They are not being careful in making their observations.

A Sociopath cares ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about other people - the very definition of 'narcissism'. A true sociopath, however, can hide their self-centeredness quite effectively - and many can function well in society (without being caught) because they are pretty damned 'intelligent' at being sociopaths - excellent lying skills is one hallmark of a true sociopath.

I don't think that narcissism and sociopathy are inseparable, mon. For example, consider the title character in Dexter, who is a sociopath but not even a little bit narcissistic. The narcissist needs the approval and adoration of others, but that is not necessarily a sociopathic trait.

DSM-IV separates the two (ahem) conditions as Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) and Anti-Social Personality Disorder (APD)

What the two have in common is a lack of empathy or remorse. Both must dominate or control. The President of the US should be neither.
