Who is the most powerful person in the world?

The capitalist with the most cash and the most ties to organized criminal gangs. I have no idea who that is, which is just how peope like that want it to be.

You are.

Im gonna interpret "most powerful person" as meaning "the person whom can cause the greatest change into the world".

Its impossible to know for sure, since, as Setanta said, its very likely that its a person with ties to criminal organizations and, as such, wouldnt want anyone to know they have the said ties. But im gonna do the usual bet: the president of the United States. Sure, he cant do anything he wants, he has a lot of people he needs to answer for, but thats still a lot of power.

Yes, i am agree with you because he or she not mixed in world's spoil. A newborn baby is the most powerful person in the world.

Doubtful. The most powerful person isn't going to let anyone cut off a piece of his genitals.

NOT the leaders of those criminal gangs ?

According to me this time OBAMA is most powerful person in the world.

Probably the nominal head of the Rothschildes at a given time.

Obama
