I like Emperor Peter the Great. He is one of the most significant figures in Russian history.
I just came back from Saint Petersburg trip, the city is all about Peter the Great(you can tell by the name)

That chart is hardly a good representation of people who are underemployed. It only points out people who are working part time because they cannot obtain a full time job when the definition of underemployment not only encompasses that, but anyone in any job that is not being paid a wage/working a job that utilizes their full scope of skills and talents.
A computer engineer of 15 years working full time as a grunt for the TSA still has a full time job with benefits but is horribly underemployed. Underemployment isnt strictly about hours.

how many of those jobs are EQUAL (pay, benefits, etc) to what was lost.
You will find the libs very quiet on that area
2.9% of the labor force. It's in the second graph in the last post sana madeYou will find the libs very quiet on that area
You're welcome.
That did not address pay or benefits.
Nice try though- clearly a lawyer in the making
What Obama and company will not do is have this question asked:
"Of those that have lost their jobs and got ones back- how many have a job situation equal or better then what they originally lost."
Also a bubble burst there has to be some correction, am I right?

"The US economy added 217,000 jobs in May. The unemployment rate held steady at 6.3%, a five-and-a-half year low.
With last month’s job growth, the US has finally recovered all of the jobs it lost during the Great Recession. (That’s without adjusting for population growth; economists estimate there are about 7 million more working-age Americans today than there were at the previous employment peak in January 2008.) "

A barbaric warlord that not only conquered China but also half of Europe and part of middle east with no aid of modern technology?
That will be an overestimation.
1. His army was huge. Many times bigger than most of the European armies.
2. His military technology was much better than the Europeans.
3. If the Europeans were united, then he could have been defeated easily.
No one mention Genghis Khan?
why would anyone see that barbaric warlord as his favorite political figure?
Mine is Spartacus as he created an army of gladiators and slaves which rose from 70 to over 40 000 men
It's interesting how Romans forced them to kill for their own fun, and when the tables turned it wasn't that fun as they had to fight each other
His acts teach a good lesson

Sun Tzu, for writing what is essentially a pocket book on how to build an army and conquer a country
Ron Paul, for being one of the only genuine human beings in politics, I disagree with him on various things but he's one of the few people who just says what he believes in rather than dance around it because it might make him unpopular with a certain group

Holy shit where to start.......
Obama did not provide healthcare to anyone. He gave a handout to insurance companies by using the threat of government force to compel people to buy a commercial product. Do you know who is paying the IRS penalties? The same poor people that this abomination of a bill was supposed to help.

Also, a lot of mid-sized and small-sized companies were forced to close their operations, after Obama made it mandatory for the employer to provide healthcare for the employees.
He has been doing a great job,, strengthened his own country as well as allowed to others to flourish...
Strengthening the country? Examples are here:
1. Public debt is at record high
2. US Dollar is getting more and more devalued.
3. The economy still remains in shambles.
In the past, if you get sick as a US citizen, you had to pay an arm and a leg for healthcare expenses and that financially devastated many families whereas countries like Canada already had free healthcare for a long time.
It was just unthinkable that a developed first world country like US did not have a plan to afford to provide medical care for its citizens whereas their neighboring countries can. I'm glad that Obama has now fixed the issue.

Mine would be Napoleon Bonaparte! He was a great French emperor who was loved by a lot of his subjects. When he was exiled by his political foes, he chose to escape captivity and marched a small army to Paris itself! 
And when he was confronted by the enemy (his former) army, he said "If there is one of you who would kill his Emperor, here I am." They instead surrendered to him and joined him to claim France back into his rule. Too bad he was not an economist. He barely ruled for 100 days after his return from exile.
Napoleon Bonaparte was indeed a great man... Besides being a great military leader he has contributed in various different ways.. The way he had reorganized the legal structure of France was revolutionary.. And when he was confronted by the enemy (his former) army, he said "If there is one of you who would kill his Emperor, here I am." They instead surrendered to him and joined him to claim France back into his rule. Too bad he was not an economist. He barely ruled for 100 days after his return from exile.The Napoleonic code is a revolutionary set of laws in its time which allowed freedom of religion, not allowing privileges based on birth and selection of civil servants based on merit!
The Napoleonic code was subsequently adopted by many countries in the world! It is not unfair to say that we might not have the many liberties we have today without him!

What about Obama?The greatest political leaders ever has to be our very own Barack Obama.. He has been doing a great job,, strengthened his own country as well as allowed to others to flourish...
He wanted to start a revolution in the whole world but got killed by the Cia.
No joke. The CIA was directly involved in his capture and the eventual execution. The CIA was well supported by Klaus Barbie, the German neo-Nazi. Wikipedia claims that he was executed by Mario Terán, a Bolivian. But nowadays, the truth has been uncovered. It was CIA operatives, who executed him.
