I'm trying, without a great deal of success, to perform a simple self
join using the django orm.  I'm pretty sure the F() function is not
the answer.  I believe this only allows you to compare two field
within the same model instance, not to compare fields within 2
instances of the same model.  I want to do this -

Model-

class Account(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    parent_account = models.ForeignKey('self', default=None,
blank=True)

SQL-

SELECT account.*, parent.*
FROM account
LEFT JOIN account parent ON
   account.id = parent.parent_account

This seems pretty basic, but I can't find any way to do it.

Thanks
