      Susan Boyle?
      Neil Patrick Harris?
      Emma Watson?
      ( but no Daniel Ratcliffe?)

      What do these people influence?

        They influence people to clear their cache and vote ad nauseum.

          There are short bios for each person, in case anyone wants to correct their ignorance instead of taking the, "I don't care about people not in my tiny partisan political bubble." stance.

            OTOH, Paul spawned the Tea Party movement which may be the most significant political movement in the US since civil rights.

                Good for you. I'm talking to people who are like, "I don't know who that is, this list sucks!"

                  The world doesn't revolve entirely around U.S. national politics. God forbid some entertainers be on the list. Where's your boy? He on the list? Newp.

                  Grassroots movements form around ideas. In this case it was largely Ron Paul's ideas.

                        In what deranged sense is it something to be proud of that Mr. Paul is not quite as "influential" as Conan O'Brien, whose influence was just enough to make people protest when the network butt-raped his career into oblivion? "Ooh, look, a bunch of random imbeciles mentioned various people they liked, and Ron Paul came up pretty often!"

                          Elok, I'm sorry, but Conan O'Brien has a massive career. He's about to embark on a 30-city stage tour because he isn't contractually allowed on TV. In fact, its called "The Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television Tour", which is the clause. When he can be on TV again in September, his ratings are going to blow Leno and Letterman out of the water.

                          His career is no where near oblivion.

                            I'm amused as all **** by the people that think this list means anything whatsoever.

                              Quite frankly many of those people would have trouble being eligible for the Dead Pool.

                                At least Jeff Bridges beat Glen Beck
                                John Brown did nothing wrong.
