I have to write a little bit on who I think is the most important person in US history after World War 2. Only I dont have any idea who it could be. It could be a president, social leader, almost anyone...except elvis.

Thank you.

think of the most important event from 1945- present, and then write about the leader.

just do a report about the harvard mystique and focus in on a few harvard grads, such as kissinger. explore possibilities such as "would he have gotten where he did had he not attended harvard?"

I'd go with martin luther king jr. Or maybe ronald reagan. Since his death, there is a lot of stuff to reseasch and it should be fairly easy to write on either of the 2.

It's gotta be George W. For better or worse, he's changed the world in a very important way. Also since he's come to power, US isn't as powerful a country as it used to be. If not, maybe John Nash (I'm sure we've all seen a beautiful mind). If it doesn't have to be an American, then go with John Meynard Keynes (British). He's kinda during WWII, but his his ideas were very much post WWII. He changed the world from 45 to the 70's in a HUGE way. Also post 70's too. You can thank your trillion dollar debt to him.

George W! In his four years as president he was able to turn a once liked and respected nation into one despised and mocked all around the world. that is some skill

Yeah, but keynes was during FDR and WWII but his political impact (he's an economicisit, he's done more than this) was to save a surplus and pay for deficits (before then governments didn't usually have deficits). The idea was to keep the world from going into a severe depression like after WWI. It quite obviously worked too. So yes, his ideas are from WWII, but they were used for post WWII life.
