What is the difference between dictatorship elections and elections in a presidential democracy?
Dictators only run for re-election for the sake of show. They make sure they win by being the only candidate or by controlling the counting of the vote or some others means.

How dangerous were the dictators towards world peace in World War II?
Which dictators? FDR? Churchill? Stalin? The dictators in South America? In Asia?
They all imposed price controls, rationing, strict labor controls, bans on certain trade or ownership, jailed those not willing to be drafted or serve in combat, moved civilian populations involuntarily, and whole host of other authoritarian measures.
Therefore, the use of the word "dictator" is sloppy, imprecise, and leads to nothing more than subjective opinions in a question like this one.
If it is intended to mean only Axis leaders, then the phrasing of the question betrays a Western culture bias (typical of the winners in any war!) and the cumulative effects of the constant media propaganda of today that the "other side's leaders were the only big bad guys and we are oh so good."
For that matter, has "world peace" ever existed on this planet. There are always Tutsis fighting Hutues, or border skirmishes, somewhere going on. I doubt that "world peace" has ever existed, even for a few minutes!
Why wouldn't you want to live under dictatorship?
There are several reasons why. 1. You do not want to be censored to what you can say and can't say. 2. Mostly dictatorships like Cuba turn into communist countries. 3.The dictatorship makes what you read and hear what the dictator wants you to hear. 4. Look up Joseph Stalin for an example how more worse he was than Hitler He killed his own people who didn't like them. 5. Dictatorships are very harsh because they take your money and you only can barely survive because you can barely get any food. Thanks for the question.
Why is the us a trying to start ww3 with Syria?
I am not sure the U.S. is starting any wars here. The civil war in Syria has already been raging on for several years, with casualties on both sides. President Obama has said that he wants the Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad to step down, but this has not happened. Meanwhile, a number of members of congress (most notably Republican Senator John McCain) have tried to make the case for intervening, but the US has not tried to overthrow the Syrian government, nor have any of America's allies. Mr. Obama has been hesitant to offer aid to the Syrian rebels for a number of reasons; and the fact that he finally agreed to send some aid to them is hardly a sign of World War III.

What changes were brought from hitlers dictatorship?
Initially when Hitler became the Fuhrer he was able to get people jobs, homes and food. This made the Germans very happy. When Hitler started killing Jews and other undesirable people the populous started learning he was not so perfect. He ruled with deception, manipulation, and brainwashing. Children had to sing a song saying Hitler was their savior and they pledged themselves to him. The general populous had to greet others with Heil Hitler or else the Wehrmacht, SS or Gestapo would get after them. Some were killed for failing to do so. So while industry soared the life of the people went down hill. The Underground Resistance was formed. They did an excellent job of covertly and overtly fighting against the Germans and working with the English secret agents. The sad thing about Germany is that at the beginning of Hitler's rule the German people were starving, homeless and jobless and at the end of the war they were homeless, jobless and starving again. After the war they recovered with a new democratic government and a new economy.
