Probably five.

Me -> several county Republican committee members -> Haley Barbour/Trent Lott/Roger Wicker, et al -> George W. Bush -> many world leaders -> Kim Jong Il.

If one-time meetings count, go straight from me to Haley Barbour, Trent Lott, Thad Cochran, or Roger Wicker.

me -> a friend of mine who used to work in Kent Conrad's office -> Kent Conrad -> Bill Clinton -> Kim Jong Il

Also:

me -> Ashwin Madia -> Rahm Emmanuel -> Bill Clinton -> Kim Jong Il

A third route, if we're allowed to count dead people:

me -> my deceased grandfather -> William F. Buckley -> numerous politicos who know both Clinton and Buckley -> Bill Clinton -> Kim Jong Il

A really circuitous route:

me -> a former Star Trek writer I know -> Rick Berman -> Jeri Ryan -> Jack Ryan -> Barack Obama -> numerous world leaders -> Kim Jong Il

I don't know.  Do you really think he's ever actually met his body double in person?  Such an encounter could lead to a lot of awkwardness.

Well, the only time Bill Clinton allegedly met Kim Jong-il personally was in 2009, and many experts are speculating that Clinton actually met with Kim Jong Il's body double.

About Kim Jong Il meeting his body double in person, I suppose it's possible, but I'm not sure.
