Huntergreen, I see an enormous difference between *having 
ambitions* and *being* ambitious... Slytherin are often the later, 
meaning they want power for power (or because they are afraid of 
others, like the wimp), but having an ambition, if it is incased in 
strict morals, is ok (Percy's case does not have the morals).
