I fail to see how calling a person a "self-nominee" is degrading. It means that the person put themselves up for nomination - which is _exactly_ what is happening here. How is it degrading? At most one can say that one isn't "really" a nominee until one is on the ballot, but that is being officious and picking nits, IMNSHO.
