From Forbes, February 12, 2020: There Are Five Types Of Political Leader. So Which Is Donald Trump?

Note: Earlier today I viewed an op that referenced "Level 5 Leaders". Since this is a new term for me I
asked for clarification and stated that I would do a search if necessary. Here are the results of my search.

From Forbes article:

snip

"...five types (levels) of political leaders exist, which are as follows.

1. Surgeon Leaders (tRUMP fits this category.)

2. Soldier Leaders (Dick Cheney fits this category.)

3. Accountant Leaders (Bill Clinton fits this category.)

4. Philosopher Leaders (Woodrow Wilson fits this category

5. Architect Leaders (Abraham Lincoln fits this category.)"

Much more text and photos at link*, including British pols and references (such as ITV that I'm not familiar with
and a search did not satisfy:

So there you have it. I see that for me a Level 5 Leader is a good thing indeed!
