Will Kim Jong il's son be a better leader since he was educated in Switzerland?

I have been wondering, first of all, why KJI even sent his son to school outside of N.K. It would seem that since the son now knows about freedom and propaganda, he might be sneaky when his father dies and be a totally different leader. Wouldn't his peers and teachers in Switzerland TRY to teach him differently? Or, maybe he's been groomed to be power hungry as well.

Do you have any thoughts or insight on this?

Very unlikely he will have any different ideas on government, or even if he does will the armed forces allow him to make changes?

Many of the world's leaders are educated outside their home country. Most Saudi Princes are educated in the US, but does that mean when they go back they make changes?

It's not up to his teachers and peers to teach him any differently to his classmates, that's up to his own conscience.
 
I don't know much about the psychological makeup of Kim Jong IL's son, but the fact that he has received advanced education outside the borders of North Korea may help him be a more enlightened leader. There are some here who might say "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree" in their expectations of the son; however, not enough is known in the Western world to make a good judgement. Kim Jong IL is reportedly "paranoid", a condition made even worse when Bush/Cheney illegally invaded a sovereign nation that had never attacked us and then endorsed/used torture in violation of our own Constitution and the Geneva Convention rules. If anyone can set up diplomatic ties, it is our current president, Barack Obama, who is masterful at being intelligent and firm, but respectful. Not knowing what the young man's intelligence level is or his personality characteristics, it is hard to determine how he would be as a leader. Let us hope he is amenable to change.
