I'm going to opt for Stalin.
But interesting to look at common MOs. They all had a very low regard for members of their own country.
The difference between Bush and the others is that the others were driven by their ideals, they actually had strong convictions.
Bush came from the right family and has been blown by the winds.
Hitler interestingly came to power democratically but used strong arm tactics. Where as Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot came to the top post revolution and civil war.
Hard call, but yes Stalin, mainly the gulags and starving the Ukraine to be able to export food.
