without a doubt it has to be Nikola Tesla, the guy was a genius coming up with various inventions and theories decades before his time things such as wireless power networks and radio transmission taking energy from the atmosphere providing free electricity for the world without wires some of his weirder inventions include death rays and energy weapons and possibly even a teleportation device, Tesla was a very secretive man who had many enemies amongst his contemporaries the most powerful being Thomas Edison who started out as a mentor and when he saw how amazing his new protege was did everything he could to stifle him including possibly burning his lab to the ground. now mostly forgotten Tesla was a great visionary who if we had listened to him would have made the world a very different place possibly without poverty and war........ if only we had listened..

Undoubtably Gaius Julius Caesar. Had he not stopped the civil wars endemic in the Roman Republic in the 1st century BC, it is likely that the city would have collapsed as a significant power. If that had happened the whole of Western civilisation would have been different. There would have been no Roman Empire. I would suggest that Christianity would have been unlikely to have taken hold - remember that it did not become a significant force until Constantine the Great made it the official religion of the Empire in the 4th century AD

Without a doubt it was Robert E. Lee whose decision not to allow the Army to continue the war as a insurgency but to end the hostilities and start the healing forming one country again. Without a doubt it would have succeeded and we would have been free so it shows what kind of a man he was to put the good of the nation first!
God Bless You and The Southerner people.

Hmm, tie between Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin, Abraham Lincoln, and of course Jesus Christ.

Einstein. The man was way before his time. His theories are still being proven and refined. Plus he was a very insightful man.
