I also love this man.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Mujica

José Mujica

He is President of Uruguay,
he never wears a tie,
and is the world's 'poorest' head of state:
 "A roly-poly former Tupamaros guerrilla 
who grows flowers on a small farm 
and swears by vegetarianism
 (although he is not vegetarian),
he is an avowed atheist..."


His official protection comprises
two policemen and his three-legged dog.
He gives almost all of his salary away.

O, I forgot.
It is true that I love José Mujica, but I also have a strong feelings towards Jindra Hrdlicka.
He is a president of a small condominium association somewhere in Canada.
