  This is a question that could be answered in many different ways. nbsp;  You could for instance say what most people would say,
 that the president of the united states is the most powerful person in the world,  but we all know that he or she are simply puppets nowadays for whoever put up the money for the election campaign;  or in the current situation,  their daddy.
nbsp;
 You could also say that Professor Hawkins is the most powerful person in the world,
 because nobody is smarter than he is,  and he is able to comprehend things we didnt even know existed,  but that would be a dream that would never come true.
nbsp;
 How about the premier of China?
nbsp;
 He controls the largest percentage of the worlds population,  has the largest army,  and nobody wants to piss them off nowadays.
nbsp;
 But no,  he has no power either.
nbsp;
 Its definately not the British prime minister,  or any king queen or premier around the world.
nbsp;
 So back to the people who pull the Presidents strings in the USA.
nbsp;
 Maybe one of them is the most powerful person in the world.
nbsp;
 Maybe its the billionaire tyrant Rupert Murdock,  who controls most of the worlds media.
nbsp;
 Truth is,  he is the closest to it so far.
nbsp;
 Or,  whilst we are talking about money being power,  maybe it is our eternal friend and philanthropist Billy Gates.
nbsp;
 Maybe young Bill has put some thing into the computers he sells that means he is the most powerful person in the world.
nbsp;
 But yet again,  alas,  no.
nbsp;
 Not even that amount of money makes you so powerful.
 So if its not the premiers,  and its not the super rich,  or the intensly armed,  then that just leaves one group.
nbsp;
 Us.
nbsp;
 The simple everyday,  go to work,  do as we are told,  pay our taxes,  mr and mrs normal.
nbsp;
 Because the bastards mentioned above can only get away with everything they do,  or anything they do,  because we let them.
nbsp;
 If we decide not to let them get away with anything anymore,  then they wont.
nbsp;
 It is only our willingness to lie down and whine about things,  rather than stand up and tell them to shove it,  that they can do anything at all with the power we give them.
nbsp;
 So,  if you want to be recognised for what you are,
 the most powerful person in the world;  then stand up and show it.
nbsp;
 There will be two important elections coming up in the next 18 months,  which will be a good place to start.
nbsp;
 Oh,  and as a little side note.
nbsp;
 The truth is you can narrow it down a bit more wen talking about the most powerful peple in the world.
nbsp;
 Its not so much mr and mrs normal,  as just mrs normal,  because men will always do as they ar told.
