1. Only the psychologically unfit one we have now.
The sign of a true sociopath - mannerisms, body movement, facial gestures: they are always inappropriate.

6. Gaius Caligula?
Edited on Sat May-20-06 08:56 AM by Spider Jerusalem
'Let them hate, as long as they fear.' (He was elected, sort-of, by the Roman Senate...of course by that point in Roman history that was mostly a formality.)

(avoiding the obvious comparison with a certain mustachioed Austrian here...)

12. William McKinley comes to mind...
"Hey, let's blow up our own battleship and then blame the Spanish!"

10. That rich & powerful elite group, simply does not care
what the 'little people' think of them. BushCo takes it one step further by laughing about it and minimizing it.
