"I am pretty sure Hitler came across as pretty neurotic even in his private life ;) "
Hitler was neurotic in his private life. He did not come across as neurotic in his early career though. Plenty of world leaders and public figures, including W. E. B. Dubois and FDR, thought he was a okay. "Mussolini I actually don't know much about -- besides who he was, of course, and the fact that he got the trains to run on time :)" Mussolini was very charismatic in the celebrity kind of way. He was admired by many world leaders, including FDR, and the people of their countries, including the USA. Newspapers in the US wrote many flattering articles and editorials about him. While remembered for fascism, his fascism did not originally line Jews and minorities up for execution. His party had many high ranking officials who were Jewish. It did not become anti-semitic until Italy became a bit player in the war and Mussolini needed Hitler's army to maintain power.
