Political Philosophy and Visionary Leadership

As History has shown, among the most important factors in a strong society is a visionary leader, and, as is clear in the cases of the founders of such societies, they tend to transcend specific modes of organization.  Accordingly, such examples demonstrate that the 'best' Political structure eludes easy formulation.  Now, such visionary leaders can be conceived as combining the wisdom of the Platonist or Aristotelian ruler, wih the creativity of Nietzschean artist.  So, in the absence of an adequate term for such a leader, a corresponding '-ocracy' that can suffice as a definition of the 'best' type of Political organization remains lacking.
