By Eric Zimmermann - 04/23/10 11:28 AM ET


President Obama is the most popular world leader, according to a new international poll.

Obama received 77% support from respondents in the U.S., Italy, Spain, France, Britain and Germany. He just edged out the Dalai Lama, who garnered 75% support. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton came in at 62%, with Pope Benedict XVI receiving just 36% support.

The least popular? Moammar Gadhafi of Libya, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, and Chinese President Hu Jintao.

The poll was conducted by Harris Interactive and surveyed 6,135 individuals between the ages of 16 and 64.
