Very true. Reading the quotes at the end of the picture (?), Edison most definitely was the past equivalent to Steve Jobs and Mitt Romney.
And Tesla had a sanity problem. Some geniuses do.
Tesla was eccentric, but truly one of the greatest geniuses of his day. Ultimately what it came down to was that he was a great inventor, but a poor publicist and businessman. And had a bit of a depressing tendency to invest time and energy into ideas that were simply too far ahead of the technology of the day.
