In Conclusion , I hereby declare that Barrack Obama is the most suitable as the charismatic leaders he behave based on :

Despite being raised by a single mother in a lower middle class home and being biracial at a time when this was not common, he managed to get a good education, have a successful career as a law professor, get elected to the Illinois State Senate ( where was re-elected several times) and become a U.S Senator from Illinois.

Before the election , President Barrack Obama attracted the attention of Americans and foreigners alike with a seemingly charismatic nature. A charismatic leader has an uncanny ability to draw others to his side and move them to accomplish a cause bigger than themselves.

Barrack Obama is a charismatic leader because he knows how to send the messages, make the audiences attracted to his speech and follow his orders.

He is an extremely good public speaker and he know how to connect to the population. He knows what to say and when to say it.

Last but not least he also support Islam and their legal laws and want to have Islam s Shariah Law to be the law of the land in the U. S
