Nesting subselects in one statement

Hi Peoples,
While I've been using PostgreSQL for about six months now, and
databases in general for a bit longer than that, I still only have a
grasp on what I would consider simple SQL statements. As such I want to
know if I can do something, but after reading the SELECT statement
def's, it sounds like I can, but I'm not entirely sure if I can.

To see the design, read on. But Essentially what I want in a single
select statement is:
Given username x, return that users accounts and roles, and then for
all the accounts for user x, return all the other usernames and roles
associated with those accounts.

Is that possible??

Anyway, I've included the table defs and view defs below.

Okay, I've got a number of tables.
account
account_contact
account_role
account_contact_account_contact_role
contact

account holds information on an account. Has a unique identifier
(BigInt) called id and a name field.
account.id
account.name

contact is info about a user of the system. Again has a unique
identifier (BigInt) called id and a username field.
contact.id
contact.username

account_contact is a table that joins an account and contact together
but rather than using a composite key, also has a unique id field.
account and contact are foreign key relationships to account and contact
respectively.
account_contact.id
account_contact.account >> account.id
account_contact.contact >> contact.id

account_role are roles that an performed by contacts against accounts.
account_role.id
account_role.name

Finally, account_contact_account_contact_role is a composite key to
account_contact and account_contact_role. Essentially, this
account_contact performs this role.

account_contact_account_contact_role.account_contact >>
account_contact.id
account_contact_account_contact_role.account_contact_role >>
account_contact_role.id

SO.... If you've stuck with me to now well done ;-)

I then created a view as such.

create view v_acc_acc_ctct_acc_ctct_role AS
select acc.account,
a.name,
acacr.account_contact,
acc.contact,
c.username,
acacr.account_contact_role,
acr.name
from account_contact_acc_contact_role AS acacr
LEFT JOIN account_contact AS acc ON acc.id = acacr.account_contact
LEFT JOIN account AS a ON a.id = acc.account
LEFT JOIN contact AS c ON c.id = acc.contact
LEFT JOIN account_contact_role AS acr ON acr.id =
acacr.account_contact_role;

This yields the dataset I want, but I'm just not sure I can get what I
want in the one select from the view??

I'd appreciate any ideas or suggestions.

Thank You.
