Somewhere on the list, John Harkes, Tony Meola, Claudio Reyna. Possibly the useless defender with the beard (Lalas?).

Idiot. Since when did you have to be American to be one of the "most powerful people in American soccer"? Typical example of American myopia, I'm afraid to say (i.e. "if they're not American, they can't possibly be important.")
Newsflash: George Bush is one of the most important people in British politics. Now USAGoal, see if your tiny mind can work that one out.

Umm, if he is not an American citizen then he can't play for the national team.

Maybe he just asked when he would get his citizenship since he said it was his good friend....
Typical English blabbering....

Beat me to it. How quickly we forget...
Instrumental in WC '94 and inauguration of MLS. Gotta be in the top 10 still.
If we're including players who've had an impact, you need Tab Ramos.
How about Nick Bolitieri from Bradenton Academy?
Clive Charles?

I think of Nick when I think of tennis...that's how out of that academy i am.
How about McBride? Not a Harkes...but must have influence somewhere...decisions with the Crew no doubt.
