Queen Victoria!!! A politician?

There's a whole lot of Irish who like Cromwell better dead.

Robert F. Kennedy.

We're up to the "R's" now. I can't believe he's not in this poll; almost as incredulous as the absence of MLK Jr.

I have never forgotten the shock and pain of RFK's murder when I was a boy, coming only five years after his brother's (which are some of my earliest memories, the TV broadcasts from JFK's death and funeral). Modern day Gracchi. Had RFK lived and become president, which I believe he would have in 1968, or perhaps 1972, we would be living in a very different world today (you might think it would be a worse one, depending on your own politics, but I believe it would be a far better one).

Bismarck was a terrible person but he does win on the beard front.

Too many good choices this time!

Like Pyotr Stolypin but Churchill got my last vote instead of him

Well said, miniMo. I would have voted for him on that basis, but I think the emphasis of the poll is on "favorite", not the dead part.

If you're going to run the poll on the basis of "Dead Englishmen that the Irish don't like" it'll run to round 1W at the very least.

I am just voting for the ones that are actually Politian's. There is only around 5 or 6.
