Is it possible for great men to arise without the support of hypercompetent subordinates?
Seeing as how we can almost always point to the accomplishments of subordinates to account for the existence of the accomplishments of the higher man, probably not.
Probably not. That's why most great men have emerged at specific moments and places in history

No.

Nappoopan was a manlet.

Who is this?

Isn't this a meme just because the frogs used a different height measuring system and napoopan was actually average?
Also
Any """""great""""" men totally carried by their subordinates, yet they never ever got an ounce of recognition?

Napoleon was average for his day, but that's still pretty short compared to modern standards.

Most people recognize the various President's by name but very few recognize his cabinet, which is a very important part of what makes or breaks a presidency. For example, do you know who this guy is? He's been a very important person for the past 8 years and you have no idea who he is.
>>1862152
You are in fact correct. Can you please enlighten me about him?

Then again, can a president like Obama even be compared with the great men of old.His results and achievements don't even come close to theirs.
>>1862132
Average height for the time is ok. You can't compare people back then with those today. Also probably 95% of great men of the past were manlets going by that definition. Friedrich, Alexander, etc.

Yes.
If not we have to assume that every great man was just the pinnacle of a pyramid of ever increasing numbers of correspondingly decreasingly great men.

Carter's only been on the cabinet for the past year and a half though. SecDef has been an incredibly messy position for the past 15 years.

Barring becoming a dictator, republicanism kind of prevents this more than the individual. Even looking at deified individuals like Washington, their actual term in the seat was average at best.

His first act as Kaiser should have been plopping a Thor's Hammer on the moon and blowing that shithole planet apart.
