The least trustworthy person on the list is, of course, George W. Bush, and mainly because he is in the most powerful position and his actions can hurt the people of the rest of the world the most. Mandel? Havel? Zapatero? Ridiculous. Who would be the people in a list of Billionaires who would be the most important and the most able to do damage if they wished? Why the richest! Such as Gates, Buffett and Ellison. Certainly, not Oprah Winfrey and Georgio Armani who have around a billion dollars when compared to 40 billion, 30 billion or 15 billion. Focus on the real problems- Bush and Blair. The rest are meaningless.
This is a meaningless list?
No one on this thread is sufficiently familiar with the backgrounds of
all the people listed to make an intelligent judgment (<- this word lacks a vowel, btw.). Except for you of course, when, in the very next sentence, you state :
The least trustworthy person on the list is, of course, George W. Bush, Well, when you claim mr. Bush is the least trustworthy, you also claim you know enough about the other leaders on the list to assume they are more trustworthy then Bush.
So I guess what you mean to say is that you are smart and we are not, huh?
Oh, and one other thing: Being the leader of a country usually brings with it the ability to command it's army. Or have you forgotten that? I'd say a billionaire such as Gates has little defense against say the Spanish army(Zapatero).
