There is no question but that Hitler belongs in the category of the truly mystic medicine man.(and that would be INFJ) As somebody commented about him at the last Nürnberg party congress, since the time of Mohammed (which also was a INFJ, by the way) nothing like it has been seen in this world. His body does not suggest strength.(so no ENTJish here, because ENTJs look like they have steel in them, they have a very strong body and overall posture) The outstanding characteristic of his physiognomy is its dreamy look. (melancholic INFJish) I was especially struck by that when I saw pictures taken of him in the Czechoslovakian crisis; there was in his eyes the look of a seer. (again, the seer is the classic INFJ) This markedly mystic characteristic of Hitler's is what makes him do things which seem to us illogical, inexplicable, and unreasonable (pretty much unlike of a NT, who are suppose to be rational). ... So you see, Hitler is a medicine man, a spiritual vessel, a demi-deity or, even better, a myth. --- Is Tomorrow Hitler's? Carl Jung on Hitler, Musollini and Stalin (1941), by H. R. Knickerbocker
So like I said, Jung himself saw Hitler and took him as a mystic, a seer, with "dreamy look". Jung was using this terminology for Introverted Intuitives, especially INFJs.
Unless you want to post silly quotes on and on that "ENTJs are conquerors and INFJ are not".

If I had to describe the ENTJ personality type in one word it would be either "pioneer" or "mobilizer". ENTJs are by nature driven to stir things up and to make ideas happen.
As kids or young adults they often end up in charge of little groups without even trying to because of their creativity, forcefulness and great ability to verbalize their ideas to others. As they mature, ENTJs become more serious and power (or influence) hungry. They usually wield that power with ease. They don't believe in the old "power corrupts" saying. Rather they believe that "power reveals the real you".
A common misconception that should be mentioned is that people who are not experienced in MBTI tend to think that an ENTJ has to be a leader. This is not true. ENTJs can end up in many different careers and life paths and they don't need to lead anyone to be happy.
