Best Leader of History?

[Marx]

In my opinion Ghengis Kahn, what he did in a lif-time. He conquered a area from eastern-Europe to China. (He even tried to take the Islands of Japan) But in last he failed because of a Kamikaze (Holy Tyfoon (not the best words chosen here I think))

 

[MrPresident]

"I'd put my vote down for Ronald Reagan "

You think that the greatest leader of all-time was Ronald Reagan? I don't think he is even the greatest American president let alone greatest leader. Explain to me what exactly he did that was so great.

 

[East German]

Frederick the Great of Prussia

Fact #1: Stalin killed more of his own people than any other leader except your beloved Mao.

Fact #2: Those still alive in Russia suffered terribly under the 5-year plans, which were founded on forced labor.

Do you still love Iron Joe?

Remember, if not the the US, Germany would have rolled over Russia. America supplied the Russian military with plains, tanks, money, food, and supplies.

On another note, your criteria for a good leader seems to praise

Mao Tse Tung: Killed the most people ever.

Stalin: Duh! That's the point of your post.

Hitler: Killed the 3rd most people ever and nearly exterminated an entire race in Europe.

The leaders of the late French Revolution who invaded Europe and were responsible for "The Reign of Terror."

What do you think the purpose of government is Fayadi? I recomend you read some of John Locke, Hegel, Adam Smith etc. They have the outlandish beleif that government exists to HELP the people, and that it only derives is JUST powers from the CONSENT of the governed. Heck, even Hobbes, who advocated an oppressive "Leviathon," thought government should serve the people.

Best leader? Attila the Hun IMHO. Dont forget he was ALWAYS fighting in the greatest battles, unlike other leaders.
