You went nearly halfway round the globe to find someone who would substantiate the addition of George W. Bush to your list [May 12]. Bush has little worldwide credibility, and a record 70% of the American public no longer supports his policies. By what reasonable measure is he one of the world's 100 most influential people?

I'm a geography professor striving to get students to think globally, and I find your list to be disappointing. Tim Russert, Suze Orman, Miley Cyrus, etc., among the "most influential people in the world"? Really?...
