    You are aware that he won at more battles than Waterloo right? He was effectively the Nelson of the army. He won a series of incredibly important battle. I suggest you check out the column listing his victories(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wellington's_Column)

    Look up say Assaye or Busaco

    You telling me Hussein OBama isn't on that list? Major disapoint, also, Luis Inácio Lula da Silva.

    PS: too much liberal bias in that article
    PS2: they forgot about Che Guevara. Nothing more than a spoiled brat with a craving for shooting peope in the face.
