Expectations are part of the measurement in gauging the political leader being appointed in any position in the country. Although there are many capacities that would technically define the capability and ability of each ruler, but in most cases, aside from the contribution that they had made, it is their mental alertness that rules out and gives the real identity that they possess. There are great examples and valor of domination, command, and authority that have actually exemplified the virtue of intelligence in the greatest sense of that word. Here are the world’s geniuses found in the presidential and monarchial seats, who have captured the hearts of their subordinates, followers, and great multitude of citizens, who trusted their ingenuity more than anything else trust, did.
