Lol yes, of course you had to resort to that xD

Still not making the President the most powerful person in the world...

Countries are only powerful due to what they have. Take that away, and the country is suddenly less powerful. What would happen if every country broke any relations they have with the US (and made up for it by going to other countries for whatever they needed)? The US would have their military, but then what happens to your economy, or just your supply of anything. Quite a bit of the US's electricity comes from outside the US... If that gets cut off... What happens?

Of course the same can be said for pretty much any country, but my point is... Calling a single country the most powerful is idiotic, because they need the support from other countries as well.

But yes... As it stands, if you really want to look at it your way the US is "The most powerful country"

(Still doesn't make el pres the most powerful in the world though xD)
