As history has proven, we don't realize the importance of our leaders' actions until after they are gone. What seems to be the "wrong" thing now turns out to be right 20 or 30 years later, and sometimes what seems right at the time turns out to be idiotic later. I could cite examples, but it would take about an hour to type.
