In your opinion, who was the most clever man in history and why.

For me I would say Lenin, his tricks and ways of coming into power are priceless. The Treaty of Brest-Litovsk is freakin genius. I wonder how far the Soviets would have gone under his rule instead of Stalins.

Runners up
Bismark
Hannibal

Alexander the Great, and probably Hitler. I don't think many people would've been able to rally an entire country like Hitler did. This is excluding the horrifying things he did of course...

Adolf Hitler, he had every country running around trying to appease him all the way up to the point he drove tanks through them. Horrible misguided man but amazing political manipulator.
But terrible military stategist, you have to admit that. I mean, he was barreling through Europe easily in the early years, but once the Allies wised up to him, he just dropped the ball.

Switching from military targets to civilian ones in Britain, just when you were about to wipe out their entire defenses? Really?

Invading the Soviet Union, populated with vast millions of men and commanded by a ruthless ruler who would obviously show no mercy? Great going, there, man!

Declaring war on the U.S., when you could've just left the Japanese and Americans to duke it out themselves? What could go wrong?

Seeing the Allied invasion as a good thing? Face it, Hitler, you were already long gone by then.

Cleverest person I think would be Chuko Liang, a Chinese strategist. How many other people can claim to have scared off an army by just playing the lute?

Whoever was the god child who invented tampons. That person deserves a golden statue made of...gold and jewels and chocolate and kittens and joy.

BEST. THING. EVER.

Hitler really dropped the ball when he went into Russia.

If only he had learned from Napoleons mistake.

Wait, it would have been very bad if he did.
