Can you name a few other Brit leaders and their achievements and failings as a measure?
But perhaps given this....

I fail to see what was wrong with Churchill's leadership, apart from his sometimes poor ideas for grand strategy. Surely it can't be worse than Chamberlain's, whose appeasement policy miserably failed at preventing the war, right?

Oh tribesman, my knowledge of politics and history is pretty broad I assure you, although I know more about US then the UK, I know quite a bit .So hmm other Brit leaders....Atlee, Thatcher, Blair, Brown, Chamberlain, Macmillian, Eden, Walpole etc etc They are the ones I know off the top of my head. Walpole was the first and not regarded well from what I've read.Churchill lead Brits during the war and took the fight to Hitler because Chamberlain was a scumbag appeaser,.Atlee implemented the NHS etc .Eden was PM during Suez Crisis, did not do too well.This should suffice for now.I know geography fairly well also, not sure why you question that.I have not read too many posts by skybird.I have talked to Brits in person and read countless reports about the muslim problem in UK.

Back my original post though, I know Churchill was a Brit leader obviously but having studied him for a long time and authored several papers about him when I was in college, I know a lot about the man.I was simply saying the US could use him or someone like him right now.A leader with the correct ideas and the balls to push them, not the jackass we have right now who seems intent on running this nation into the ground via debt and other policies.
