Yeah, JFK was a boundary figure, and I say boundary because while he was charasmatic he didn't really bend a society.
Hitler bent a society completely to his views.
You could argue that Stalin and Saddam Hussein were both very similar in that effect. Maybe Mussolini, but I've never been sure about him.
