    Someone else here, but eh… …he’s ok. Like any human, he had some decent qualities and some crappy ones.

    People with obvious power show their flaws obviously, but nobody’s really fit to replace them, either. What you mostly get is ‘If i was rich, I would…’ …but the reality is, most of those people would cave, and the institutions they led would either fall apart or become rudderless and decay.

    Some people lead, and they do it until they crack, then they start to fall apart and others take over. Other people bitch, and shove wedges in the cracks and say ‘we all knew he was an asshole all along!’ then elevate someone else that they’ll tear down later.

    The leaders are by no means golden, but they aren’t worse than the raise-up tear-down crowd, that’s for sure.
