One of the simplest to learn and most powerfull and clean designed is Eiffel.
After that I would say C# or similar language.
Might be that C++ is not hard to learn as language itself, but all the stuff it has in and that make it a large mess don't help people that really want to learn programming and not just want to learn "code hacking" which is what I normally see when I find C++ code on the net.
