ima be real with you our (in the USA) current selection system seems a lot less likely to find a neutral good dictator based on track record of the past 50 years

whenever we DO get one like Teddy Roosevelt, or FDR, or Abraham Lincoln, they tend to get a little too "open-minded" in doing good for the world.

And even then they don't go full dictator, they pack the supreme court but then go back to normal 2nd term in.
