Pfft, our Belgian Prime Minister is gay, atheist, and has a PhD in Chemistry despite being raised by an illiterate immigrant mother so poor she had to put several children in an orphanage. Top that!<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elio_Di_Rupo" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elio_Di_Rupo</a><p>Also, he's 60 and look quite good in swimming trunks (about the only time he's not wearing a red bowtie):<p><a href="http://mediatheque.lesoir.be/v/en_images/1782158_24H_01450277_jpg_0LI9IU1C.JPG.html" rel="nofollow">http://mediatheque.lesoir.be/v/en_images/1782158_24H_0145027...</a>

"Openly Gay" -- there have surely been many many gay leaders, just not as openly gay.

The largest company in the world (APPLE) is run by a gay man. In the end does your sexuality make a difference?

Note how the article doesn't mention anywhere that he's gay [i m confused, which is the gay one?]. It's not like he's the only openly gay politician, OTTOMH the german foreign minister comes to mind.
