Who do you trust?

July's LeaderValues website poll question was: Which Global Leader do you trust most to meet today's challenges?

And the answer (from almost 250 people) was ...

• George W. Bush, US President - 28.57%
• The Dalai Lama - 14.29%
• Kofi Annan, United Nations - 12.18%
• Tony Blair, UK Prime Minister - 11.34%
• Bob Geldof, of Live 8 - 6.30%
• Jacques Chirac, President of France - 4.20%
• Pope Benedict XVI - 3.36%
• Hu Jintao, President of China - 2.52%
• Other 17.23%

I won't argue for the scientific nature of the poll, although not least because the US is our biggest audience it is probably not surprising to see GWB at the top.

But, is almost everyone really ahead of the Pope - how about Bob Geldof's position? And isn't it interesting to see how well the Dalai Lama is regarded ....
