Greatest Leader?

[Niels Bohr 72]

'Alexander The Great'!

'Issac Newton'!(Co-Founder of Calculus, makes it possible to advance science further)

'James Maxwell!' (note: the mathematician who unified electric field and magnetic field theory, not the author)

'Gregary Mendell!'(Father of genetics!)

'JJ Thompson!' (Inventor of the transistor)

'Alexander Grambell!' (Inventor of the phone)

'Thomas Edison!' (" One percent inspiration, and ninety-nine percent perspiration!" He has thousands of patents, and he went to school for only one day!)

There's so many others who are major contributors to our society that deserves credit. I miss Alexander The Great most!

The best part is how quietly the Senate goes along with the death of the Republic.

Incidentally Augustus was obsessed with personal morality - he banished several people (close family members - including his own daughter) for dishonoring themselves with "wanton sexuality". He also berated his senators for not being married and setting an example of traditional family values.
