And then we can all remember that oh, yeah, being a 'world leader' isn't* a popularity contest.

*Whereas, say, getting there usually is. Unless you're Musharraf.
tbh, Pervez topped off my list with a D+. He's determined on turning a country that is wildly undemocratic, forces 4 year-olds to marry their 79 year old uncles, and is hellbent on murdering their neighbors into a country that is wildly undemocratic, is hellbent on murdering their neighbors, and doesn't force young girls to marry their uncles.

Why Hugo?

I don't know anything about him except that he beat out one coup that was completely 100% unsponsored by the U.S. government and got re-elected.
