    fascinating query, jaline. may i ask why you're polling?

    i'd say that, if "interesting" is indeed the quality you're asking after, sonia ghandi wins by a neck, if only due to the controversial, chaotic and mysterious relationship she has with the political realm.

    robinson, however, is, in my opinion, an amazing leader and has an admirable track record both with the republican party in her own country and her work with globalisation and its discontents, as it were.

    finnbogadóttir, although i don't know much about her, seems like a really cool lady. i love that her background is fully theatrical; it highlights the everpresent parallels between theatre and politics and also, as i've only recently come to realise, iceland is a nation devoted to theatre, so it seems appropriate.

    so, yeah, i'd say:

    culturally: ghandi
    politically: robinson
    personally: finnbogadóttir

    hope that's helpful and i also hope you get some decent answers 'round here!
