Re: Most important people of 2005? (none / 1)

Over here on the positive side, I'd have to say Cindy Sheehan and Plame case Prosecutor, Fitgerald.

I guess we will get this out of the way...on the negative influence side, we have the Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld cabal...

Absolutely! (none / 0)

.
Saw the diary title, came over to nominate Cindy Sheehan and Patrick Fitzgerald for the U.S., with hope for the New Year: Ohio war veteran Paul Hackett.

For Europe I would go for Vladimir Putin and new German Chancellor Angela Merkel, a person for change in 2006 and leader of Europe's largest economy with 83 million people. Putin for impact of a President on a vast nation, Russia, and the former Soviet satellite states, envied by George Bush and his cronies in the U.S. Administration.
