Guess kreutz has a unique on line personna for every forum.
There are only two kinds of people in the end: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, in the end, 'Thy will be done.'

You know, I kind of like this particular topic. Discussing who was a great leader is interesting to me. I really enjoy reading the responses.

Never initiate force against another. But should someone do violence to you, retaliate without hesitation, without reservation, without quarter, until you are sure that he will never wish to harm - or never be capable of harming - you or yours again.KYFHO

Patton
He had the guts to say what he thought ( no political correctness)
He saw the Russians as our next enemy and wanted to take care of them while we had the troops in place--no Cold War.

Re: greatest leader of the 20th century
As pointed out before people can lead for good and for bad. Hitler, Mao, Stalin all were extremely effective leaders. They got people to do amazingly evil things and deluded whole nations.
Setting those aside who through their leadership did great evil, I think we have several candidates for best. At the top of my list would be Winston Churchill, Mother Thersa, Patton, Pope John Paul II, and Reagan.
