Is there any elected official past or present....

That you feel came close (or actually did) to executing the will of the people?

Not exactly.

In the UK back in '92 there was a Labour leader who had performed a remarkable turnaround in the Labour party and had put together a very strong 'cabinet' that was tipped to do well in the forthcoming election.

He had united a fragmented party and had given good support by the 'grass roots' of local political party councils around the country and there was a momentum about him where many had expected him to win the election in '94.

Unfortunately he died the year before !
Set the party back another 3 years and the country had to endure an extended period of John Major.
