Just watching "The World at War" right now, and reminded what a great orator Hitler was.
Have been interested in 1930 + 1940s history for most of my life, but never understood how Hitler did it until I saw Leni Riefenstihl's (sp?) film "Triumph of the Will".
Should explain very clearly I have absolutely no sympathies towards him and his mates but he was a great orator and motivator for an evil cause. As was Goebels.
Churchill was pretty good too, but I don't recall any great Stalin speeches.
Who else was a great orator/political motivator of the 20th Century?
