Which 21st century world leader most influenced history (so far)?
When historians look back 50 years from now, who will they believe was the most influential world leader of the first 20 years of the 21st century?

Which kind of Historian?
America? European? Atlantian?
All will have different preferences and you've left a couple critical folks out.
Verhofstadt; way more influence than Merkel
Wilders; who's heavily involved in the European immigration issues.

I picked Bush as well, although it was tough deciding between him and a couple of the others. So far, perhaps fortunately, there's no one to compare to the cast of characters for the 20th century -- Hitler, Stalin, Lenin, Churchill, Franklin Roosevelt, Mao Tse Tung, Reagan, Thatcher, Lyndon Baines Johnson, probably some others

Xi Jinping. Easily. He'll be remembered as the lead architect of China's takeover of the world economy, after 75-80 years of American dominance.

It would have happened already if Hillary won. But it’s far too early to pick anyone. Especially over half on your list.

On track to do just that. Trump has played right into the Chinese hands.

Sadly incorrect. The Chinese have been playing the US for the last several Presidents. Trump is the first to put a bump in their road by starting to take them to task for the actions.
I voted GWB as well based on two things. First(A positive), 9/11 and that he was leader through the bi-partisan votes confront terrorism worldwide. Second(A negative), his wimping out to the Dem house and Senate during his last two years in office where Congress took us down the path of Recession and hugely(maybe even hazard saying bigly) poor financial control and deficit spending that carried into Obama's early years.
But I'm guessing at the end of 5 more years of the Trump Presidency, he would be my choice, but the poll did say - so far.

I agree with that. Lots of ifs. Trade deal with China. De-nuclear Iran and NoKo would seal the deal. Hell, Obama might give Trump his worthless Nobel Peace Prize.
