Our 100 Most Influential People

It's time for Time Magazine's 100 Influential Leader's list. The list will include leaders, artists, innovators, icons and heroes we the people believe have committed to our worlds's best interests. So should there be any Latinos on the list? Well according to Being Latino there should be. In a recent post, BL added Chef Jose Andres, Shakira, Marco Rubio and Juan Manuel Santos to the list. Surprisingly these are the only Latinos on Time Magazine's proposed list. Should there be more? Can we even name a Latino leader which has made a difference? I honestly don't believe we give our local leaders enough credit. Sure this list isn't about local, but if you think about it, how many of us think locally vs. nationally?

Official voting ends this Friday, April 6. The complete TIME 100 list will be chosen by their editors and revealed on TIME.com on Tuesday, April 17.
