  • Name as many world leaders as you can

    Remember that time about four years ago when Dubya was just Governor Bush and the press asked him to name some world leaders and he did less-than-well in that? That doesn't really have much to do with this thread, but I thought it would be nice to see how many world leaders Polyers can just name off the cuff. No peeking, just off the top of your head. Title, first name and last name. If you can only remember, for instance, the last name, then replace others with ?. If there are two important leaders, like in France (PM and President) or if you can name both the king and the PM of a monarchy that has both, you can do so. And do the whole list in spoiler-space, so people don't get any undue influences.

    Here's mine:

    "Spirit merges with matter to sanctify the universe. Matter transcends to return to spirit. The interchangeability of matter and spirit means the starlit magic of the outermost life of our universe becomes the soul-light magic of the innermost life of our self." - Dennis Kucinich, candidate for the U. S. presidency
    "That’s the future of the Democratic Party: providing Republicans with a number of cute (but not that bright) comfort women." - Adam Yoshida, Canada's gift to the world

    A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.
