Actually, there is a relatively large number of people who believe that Pluto is a planet. Because of its recent classification as a dwarf planet, and its demotion from planetary status, many people who do not keep up with the current news believe that Pluto is still a planet. About a third or possibly less or more of the population of California (those educated and uneducated) believe that Pluto is a planet still. its kinda 50 50

Pluto, it is now a dwarf planet or planetoid.
If you still consider Pluto to be a planet then Pluto would be the slowest to orbit the sun. If you don't believe Pluto is a planet anymore then Neptune would be the slowest planet to orbit our sun.
I believe it was towards the end of August 2006.
It should not be a planet. It didn't meet all the required things to be a planet. it has enough mass , orbit our star, but can't clear the neighbourhood, to pull in or push out debris in it's orbit.
