Adolf Hitler killed 6 million people, and started a war Alexander the Great killed his best friend King Arthur didn't actually exist All the other people weren't particularly wonderful either, except for: Erwin Rommel Abraham Lincoln Norman Borlaug King David (Okay, this may be a bit ridiculous, but I like him) Nelson Mandela (Who's Ian Smith?) Ferid Murad Robert Lee and the greatest... Albert Einstein

Being serious, I'd say FDR (and his wife, Eleanor, who was basically his eyes and ears outside the White House and Washington). He was able to take the US out of the depression with the production needed to aid the Allies in WW2 and eventually the American War Machine after Pearl Harbor. He also was able to keep America somewhat stable during the depression, and made many reforms that bettered the US during the depression, like the CCC that planted trees and gave unemployed and unmarried men 18-23 (and later 17-28) a job and eventually led to many of them joining the Army just in time for WW2.
He also did this with polio.

@Zaphod I think Sun Tzu should be added to that list -_- Considering his book is still thought to this day and he was one of the greatest tacticians, ever, of all time

N. Borlaug is credited with saving over a thousand million folk. Uh, what politicians or commanders (who are scumbags that do the opposite - kill folk) tops that? Now other scientists developing medicines or some other stuff that's saved lives can compete, but certainly not scumbags like Franklin Roosevelt (draft), Erwin Rommel (a soldier for the NSDAP Germany), or Abraham Lincoln (turned what could have been a peaceful revolution into a bloody pointless waste of lives).

Juq, what about Albert Einstein? The greatest physicist of all time, and along with Podolsky and Rosen, one of few people to actually find a disproof for quantum theory.

The model of a Jew. He kills thousands of Philistines (easily replacable with anyone but Jews, as everyone but a Jew is not a human), and is given power by God to save the Jewish State.
