This my TedTalk basically. As a man of tall stature alx, there are many benefits to this life. I command (undeserved) respect when I enter the room. 
I'm going to fill you in on something. According to the Economic Times, men earn 2.5% more per year for each additional inch of height" passed the national average for men in the US.
While only 14.5% of men in the US are 6 ft or above, 58% of Fortune 500 CEOs or 6ft or above.
We're beginning to see correlation. The tall are simply better suited for holding power.
Now, to Somalia- the topic of this thread.
Let us remember all of our nations Presidents- from SYL to the end of the Kacaan to the starting of TNG- to now.
Aden Adde was not exceptionally tall, but a good leader nonetheless. ARS was also an excellent leader, but not exceptionally tall either.
These two are exceptions, not the rule.
I understand these are all older men, so I forgive them on this matter.
