Default Trivial LO8 AAxx PF hand

Playing AAxx hands in limit is still one of the toughest spots for me. Though this is a pretty ordinary hand, I just want to know what the "correct" play here is.

The PF action is what I'm questioning. I looked at my screen and saw a monster hand AA2Tss and raised without even thinking about the situation. But a bit later I started thinking about what Cappaletti said in his book, about 'pushing' and 'pulling', and since my hand is obviously very strong, should I just be calling here to induce others to come along?

One reason for raising here might be that there's only 1 player (plus the blinds) behind me, so by raising I maximise my gain against MP1. How does it change if I have 3-4 players still behind me?
