Why was Paul Metzler such a brainless dufus? Was it because he would be easily manipulated.

Contrast with Tracy. He's a genuinely nice guy with good intentions and someone people want to follow, but he's not very bright or ambitious. On the other hand, Tracy's a complete and utter bitch and ruthlessly ambitious, but she is smart, she knows what she wants, and she goes for it.

Because he didn't have to be anything else. He was hometown royalty and he was good-looking, so he was popular. Of course he was a "nice guy." He got nearly everything he really wanted, aside from that injury derailing his sports career. I thought it was interesting that he spent very little time worrying why Lisa had transferred her affections from his sister to him. It showed how self-absorbed he actually was.
He would have been an awful leader.
