Al Gore- he invented the internet, riiiight? *wink wink* The internet will destroy the world some day in the not-too-distant future. Meanwhile, let's squeeze all the fun we can out of it!

My argument is for Ronald Reagan. While it never happened, his administration was one that created the most likely conditions ever for nuclear holocaust. (It's not JFK because the technology wasn't entirely in place.) A lot of people were terrified that mutually assured destruction would occur. The SDI programme proposal is further evidence of the conditions created in the first few years of his Presidency.
After Mikhail Gorbachev came to power in the Soviet Union in 1985, Reagan softened his rhetoric about the "Evil Empire" and the likelihood of nuclear war dropped off, and it has never risen to the level of 1983 and 1984, when even Russia was convinced that the US might launch a first strike. Indeed, Soviet strategic arms forces were on high alert in the fall of 1983, according to declassified material.
Reagan wasn't malicious, evil, or stupid, but it was the combination of his finger being on the button along with his foreign policy that created a scary world that many people didn't even know of at the time. Reagan was simply a gambler, playing a high-stakes game of chicken with the USSR, and won when the Soviets flinched. However, he was dangerous because it was just as likely that his Soviet counterparts would not have flinched, and the world would have been the ultimate loser.

That entirely depends on dangerous to who. There have been quite a few who've been more evil in a nutshell then Hitler etc, thy question is a toughy..... Most people will answer with more recent turds (Bin Laden). The past is filled with much worse.... not that either of these examples don't deserve to be neutered.

Either Christopher Columbus or Jesus Christ.
Columbus was responsible for killing all the Indians, right? And Christ was responsible for at least half the deaths in religious wars and persecutions waged by Christians, including the Crusades, the Inquisition, the Spanish conquistadores and, most recently, the war in Iraq.

You ask a bad question, "most dangerous" leaves too many variables. I will go ahead and assume that what you mean is the person responsible for the most deaths in history.
My answer would be Jesus Christ.
