These are the top ten world leaders, ranked by population size.
Hu Jintao - President of the People’s Republic of China
Pratibha Patil – President of India
Barack Obama – President of the United States of America
Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono - President of Indonesia
Dilma Vana Rousseff – President of Brazil
Asif Ali Zardari - President of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan
Goodluck Jonathan – President of Nigeria
Shekh Hasina – Honourable Prime Minister of Bangladesh
Dmitry Medvedev – President of Russia
Yoshihiko Noda – Prime Minister of Japan
I pray for these men and women — that God gives them wisdom and compassion for their people.
I hope that for all 225 leaders of the world.

/ October 26, 2011Dude, look at Dmitry. He’s gotta be a character in a Michael Crichton novel somewhere. I want to shake that man’s hand.
Thanks for the honesty, Ellie.

It is a tough time to be a world leader. Where everyone knows everything about everyone all the time. I can’t imagine it.
I’d like to see us be more forgiving of our own elected leaders.
After all, we are only human.
