I've rescued faction leaders before, but it's usually from mid-late game, so they're pretty useless. If you manage to liberate one in the early game, they'll have time to catch up in the power chart with the other factions. In mid to late game, their one base economic and lab production isn't likely to help you much. Here are some leaders that are worth liberating:
Zakharov: Sacrifice a few probe teams and you'll have yourselve a technology slave.
Miriam: Give her your military tech, and she'll make use of it along with a 25% attack bonus. An added extra is her probe rating, which means almost no one is going to steal the tech you gave her. A formidable ally in a war.
Santiago: Same as above, except instead of the 25% attack rating, you have high morale
Yang: Same as above, except for his inherent quick-build ability.
You might consider the Peacekeepers if you want the votes, but usually I don't waste my time on that idiot Lal.
