I'm both amused and facepalming.

He's the creator of 4chan.

I blame 4chan

Yeah, last I checked /b/ had about 3 threads about this encouraging people to give him a high score and anyone who could compete with him a low score, as well as many threads reminding me why I stay off /b/.

If the poll wasn't so easy to use and online he'd never make it(though I do have to admit that 4chan does have a lot of influence online and even some offline so the whole 'most influential people' thing kind of fits).

Ron Paul rocks! I wish he could have been a contender for president :/ But sadly, the Libertarian party doesn't fit in the "Republican" or "Democrat" party *sigh
