Hey, I knew it, but couldnt remember. Show me any other famous forign leader and i'll probably name it.

Okay, without googling... tell me what Che Guerva did that made him so famous.

I'm not a big history buff, but I have to say helping people with various diseases in Latin America?

He doesnt deserve anything even close to fame however. He was a murderer, and a communist, and is better off dead and forgotten - the only thing a communist or socialist ever deserves.

No idding. Only Stalin and Hitler can compare to that bastard. It's a good thing he croaked at 54, hope he's still roasting in hell.

El Che was Castro's buddy, killed some people, not a great guy.

I bought this shirt cause it was funny. The whole russian reversal thing etc. But i dont remember who this guy on it is. One of my teachers (im a senior in high school) told me to find out who it was and that it was my first assignment of the year (we started today). Im sure some of you know who it is. Thanks

i don't think you should be leaving high school if you have to ask us who lenin was.

I was going to say ho chi minh without a beard (in his early years or something) Meh. I never really got vietnamese/chinese/japanese leaders cause their names are so confusing. I meant more like the rest of the world (not africa or canada either though)

ok, lets start you off with a few very easy ones. Feel free to name their parties or political idealogies...

Not only did I graduate high school without knowing who Lenin was, I managed to graduate at the top of my class in an engineering discipline at a Big Ten University without knowing or caring. Have a good day.

That's pretty much what I was going for. He was a member of Castro's Amry, and for some stupid ass reason Rage Against the Machine decided his face should be a symbol of rebellion and liberation, when all he really did was get betrayed.

My favorite is when people get tattoos of his face without even knowing that he was a waste of space.

LoL i bet you if you show that picture to every single person of my high school, less than 5% would be able to recognize it. I think Jay Leno did a Jaywalking asking people about famous leaders once. Funny as hell

Che Guevara is so popular because he (supposedly) refused to excuse himself right before he got shot. I believe his last words were something like:"I know you are here to kill me. Shoot, you dog, you are only going to kill a man." It's this supposed bravery, not his actions or even ideals, that made him famous and a loved icon of the 20th and 21st century.
