So here's a question that's been nagging at me: How many nations have elected a member of that nation's ethnic minority to be president / prime minister / fearless leader?

There were about 46 female leaders elected in the 20th century. But how many members of a minority ethnic group? I honestly don't know - I don't know Asian or African politics well enough to say - but I've been wondering about it for some time.

I asked my boyfriend this question and he stared at me for a moment before shouting "Stalin!" I was puzzled, and he explained that Stalin was Georgian. "I said elected leaders..."
