    If going by looks alone and not works, Barack Obama, Igor Luksic and Viktor Orban should be in the Top 10. Also – some really good looking ones are way to far down the list – like Anibal Cavaco Silva, Iveta Radicova, Qaboos bin Said al Said, Sebastian Pinera and Mari Kiviniemi – to name a few

  2. King Abdullah II of Jordan

  3. Rick says:

    Pedro Passos Coelho (presently Prime Minister of Portugal) deserves consideration for top spot in my humble opinion
