Because he isn't the one that's going to have to living in and running the world in another 20 years or fewer.

Because there are plenty of other choices that better represent the current and future population.

Because he was alive during a time that is so drastically different than the current world.

I don't want a representative of the population. I want someone competent who can accomplish policy objectives I share.

That's a very individualist way to look at a national decision.

I don't understand what you mean. The rest of the population can make the same choice in the same contest

That's what voting is.

Right. And when the rest of everyone votes with the same exact mentality, what's the result?

I'd assume we get competent leadership and avoid populism.
