1-Christine Lagarde.
It’s an elegant woman who steps into the offices of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in Washington. Lavishly dressed with the top French couture, she is the best representative of what can be an executive woman “à la françaiseâ€.
There is no denying about her, she’s part of the elite.
She is appreciated overseas for her a fluent English but also in France were she was a valuable Minister of finances with an astonishing curriculum.
Born in Paris, in 1956, she is the daughter of two academics in literature.
After that she studied political sciences in Aix en Provence and in Paris, she took a law degree at the Nanterre University in labor law. She did not pass the exam leading to the Ecole National d’Administration (ENA), an elite school leading to political and administrative careers, but instead she became a lawyer.
She joined the Baker & McKenzie firm in Paris in 1981. After 25 years of career she took all the steps and became Partner in Charge of the firm in Paris and became in 1999 the first woman elected chairman of the executive committee in Chicago.1)
All those successes were not unheard by the French officials and politicians.
Even if she is almost unknown for the French citizens, Nicolas Sarkozy, a former lawyer, who is fond of the “American dream†found in Christine Lagarde one of her most competent ministry after his election in 2007.
He appoints her as the new Trade Minister between 2005 and May 2007. Then she joined François Fillon’s cabinet in the Ministry of Economic Affairs, industry and Employment.
She became, one more time the first woman to ever be in charge of economic policy in France.
2-Barack Obama
I know, I know, you are already thinking, "I know that guy", but does one really know the man who is climbing the stairway to supplant salvation and the forces which are mustering around him in so many forms.
It probably was missed by most people that the month of August began on the eclipse and the dark of the moon during the birthday of Barack Obamaon August 4th.
August ended in the rare blue moon of the 30th in having two dark moons after the 28th acceptance speech of Senator Obama. The month began and ended in darkness in August in the period of the power days of birth and power for him.
Power days are important as Mr. Obama noted in his August 28th speech he wished to mirror another speech made by Martin King jr. when "he had a dream". Mr. Kings venue was the Temple of Lincoln in the sun of the day.
Mr. Obama's venue was the mile high stadium, open to the arisen stars where the dark sun of Saturn stands in the opposite of Martin King.
As Barack Obama sought to supplant Dr. King in his power, his mirror image was one of the darkness of change, revolution or chaos in Denver to the light of I have a dream.

3-Imran Khan
Imran is from the Niazi Pashtun Shermankhel tribe of Mianwali, Pakistan. His family is settled in Lahore Punjab, however, he still considers his background Pathan as per his autobiography (Warrior Race: A Journey Through the Land of the Tribal Pathans).[1] Imran attended Aitchison College and the Cathedral School in Lahore until he finished middle school, then entered the Royal Grammar School, Worcester. He was an undergraduate at Keble College, Oxford, where he read Philosophy, Politics, and Economics. He was awarded the degree of Bachelor of Arts and subsequently that of Master of Arts of the University of Oxford.[2] While at University, Imran was also the captain of theOxford University cricket team in 1974. He and his mother, Shaukat Khanum, come from a cricketing family--the Burki's, with two of his cousins, Javed Burki and Majid Khan, also having played Test cricket for Pakistan.
Political career,
In 1997, he started a socio-political movement in Pakistan known as the Tehreek-e-Insaf (Movement for Justice) and ran for office in the National Elections. The movement's main focus is to bring justice to the people of Pakistan, largely via an independent judiciary. The party has Islamic overtones and was inspired partly by Khan's renewed commitment to Islam. He became a Member of Parliament for Mianwali in the October 2002 elections. He is very critical of the judicial system in Pakistan, which he says prevents accountability for the elite class in Pakistan. Initially Imran supported 1999's militray coup of General Pervez Musharraf, however came in to the fore-front of those against General and President Musharraf.
Imran Khan is known for making politically charged statements that have raised eyebrows, both when he was captain of the Pakistan team and later in his role as a politician. The first of these statements came during an India Pakistan match in Sharjah where Imran remarked, "Let's settle the Kashmir issue over the cricket match".[citation needed] Though Imran claimed that he had made that statement only casually.[citation needed] Versions of this statement are often used as jokes in Pakistan.
In 2005, as leader of his party, Imran led a protest rally against the US-led coalition for allegedly desecrating the Holy Quran and made statements denouncing the Musharraf-Bush coalition.[citation needed] He described Musharraf as President Bush's Blue-Eye-Boy, however President Clinton was even reluctant to shake hands with Musharraf. Imran continues to be critical of Pro-American policies of Pakistan government. According to a senior leader of PTI "Khan has more than a soft corner for the ousted Afghan Taliban" [13]

4-Hillary Clinton.
Aren't we fortunate? We have wonderful, accomplished candidates vying for the democratic nomination. But, for the first time in our country's history, we not only have a woman, but a woman who is the most experienced candidate. Hillary Clinton dares to penetrate the powerful world of men, to challenge their policies and debate their ideas with her keen knowledge and qualifications. Throughout her many years as a public servant, Hillary has utilized every opportunity to make this country strong, safe and just. And, thankfully, we have now entered a time when people discuss the content of her ideas and not just the style of her hair. Today, young women throughout our country look at Hillary Clinton and realize that their potential has no limits. As the first First Lady to become a United States Senator, Hillary has already cracked the glass ceiling, and in November, she willshatter it.
Some people question the idea of a woman president. Perhaps that's because our country is still young and we haven't caught up to other places around the world where women are currently serving as Presidents or Prime MinistersaArgentina, Chile, Germany, Finland, India, Ireland, Liberia, The Philippines, New Zealand, Mozambique and the Ukraine.
5-Kim Jong Un.
As North Korea intensified its belligerent rhetoric in recent weeks -- threatening South Korea, Japan and the United States -- much attention has focused on the country's leader Kim Jong Un. However, little is known about the nation's young head of state. Built on an identity cult centered around the Kim family, North Korea's propaganda machine has carefully monitored what has been released about Kim's private life.
Kim Jong Un had rarely appeared in public before taking over the reigns after the death of his father in December 2012. The lack of information left analysts and policy makers around the world guessing what Kim's policies would look like, and many hoped for a fresh breeze in Pyongyang, for a new leadership that would focus the nation's resources on feeding its population instead of funding the army. North Korea's current warmongering discourse, however, has proved that Kim's strategies deviate little from those of his predecessors.
Kim is believed to have been born in 1982, 1983 or 1984 as the child of former North Korean leader Kim Jong Il and his third wife, a dancer named Ko Young Hui.
Kim Jong Il kept his family life shrouded in secrecy and very little is known about the childhood of the younger Kim, his two brothers and four sisters. Some students who attended a Swiss international school in the nineties believe their fellow-student, a boy known as Pak Un, was in fact Kim Jong Un. Pak Un had been introduced as the son of a North Korean embassy official and was known as a smart student who mastered German and English.
According to a Washington Post report, Pak had one particular obsession, basketball,and on the court the otherwise quiet boy showed a different side.
6-Aung San Suu Kyi
Aung San Suu Kyi, the leader of Burma's pro-democracy movement and a practising Buddhist, is undoubtedly one of the most famous and widely admired people in the world. Her fight for democracy in her homeland, subsequent imprisonment by the military regime, separation from her sons and husband, the tragic death of her husband and her inability to contact him, form a compelling story of love, compassion and dignity. She is the only Nobel Peace Prize winner to receive her award whilst in custody.
Suu Kyi's commitment to Buddhist principles have given her the strength to make immense sacrifices in her fight for justice. Buddhism has given real power to her demands for democracy for Burma, and has informed her belief in non-violent protest as a catalyst for change.
7-Mohamed Morsi
Mohammed Morsi was declared President of Egypt on 24 June 2012, becoming the first democratically elected president in that nation's history. Morsi, a professor of engineering from Zagazig University, was elected in a run-off election as the candidate from the Muslim Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice Party. He emerged as that party's candidate after others in his party were disqualified from running in the first presidential election since the removal of Hosni Mubarak in February of 2011. Morsi won 51.7% of the vote over Ahmed Shafiq, a general who had been Mubarak's last prime minister. Morsi earned his engineering degrees at Cairo University in the late 1970s, around the same time he joined the Muslim Brotherhood. He spent the early 1980s in the United States, earning a doctorate from the University of Southern California in 1982, then working as a professor at California State University in Northridge from 1982 until 1985. Since 1985 he has taught at Zagazig University and risen in the ranks of the Muslim Brotherhood. Although Mosri was not known as a dynamic candidate, the grassroots support provided by the Muslim Brotherhood helped him edge out Shafiq to become Egypt's first Islamic president. Promising to unite Egypt, Mosri resigned from his party upon assuming the presidency, but his close ties to the fundamentalist Islamic group and the instability of the Egyptian government promised to make his job difficult.
8-Hugo Chavez
8-Hugo Chavez
Hugo Chávez, in full Hugo Rafael Chávez Frías (born July 28, 1954, Sabaneta, Barinas, Venezuela—died March 5, 2013, Caracas), Venezuelan politician who was president ofVenezuela (1999–2013). Chávez styled himself as the leader of the “Bolivarian Revolution,” a socialist political program for much of Latin America, named after Simón Bolívar, the South American independence hero. Although the focus of the revolution has been subject to change depending on Chavez’s goals, its key elements include nationalism, a centralized economy, and a strong military actively engaged in public projects. His ideology became known to many as simply chavismo.
9-Bashar al-Assad
Bashar al-Assad, (born September 11, 1965, Damascus, Syria), Syrian president from 2000. He succeeded his father, Ḥafiz al-Assad, who had ruled Syria since 1971. In spite of early hopes that his presidency would usher in an era of democratic reform and economic revival, Bashar al-Assad largely continued his father’s authoritarian methods. Beginning in 2011, Assad faced a major uprising in Syria that evolved into a civil war.
