Top 20 most powerful people in the world for 2015 – See who’s number 1! (With Pictures)

3. Barack Obama 

The days of Barack Obama being among the most powerful people in the world are coming to an end. Obama has begun the final year of his presidency, one that has been as polarizing as should have been expected when he was first elected back in 2008. His knack for making history continued in November 2015 when he became the first sitting president to be featured on the cover of a “predominantly gay” magazine. The last seven years have been a roller-coaster ride for Obama and for the United States. It will soon be time for Obama to support who he hopes will be the next Democrat to hold the top office in the US.
