It would seem to me they can only run things if they're not running anything important enough for anyone else to care about.

Well it depends alot on the campus atmosphere (doesn't everything...I swear I say that line more often than anything else here on GC). At the schools I know people, Greeks are the only ones who care about it. Here at Nebraska, Two guys actually fromed a GDI party last spring, running on a platform of trying to give the same opportunities to Residence hall students that they thought greeks had. They thought it was unfair that Greeks "always" drink in their houses. Anyways, out of like 3500 votes (out of a student body of 25000) these guys only got like 250. That's when I really realized how apathetic the rest of campus can be about such issues.
