Delphi isn't a programming language, it's a compiler. It compiles Pascal (and some other things).
And yes, it is very easy.
Visual Basic you will regret learning, and C++ isn't really a starter's language.

There is nothing to regret about visual basic. It will help you later on with more complex languages.

Learn C or ASM (Any type). Delphi has all this "window builder" shit. If you learn that, you won't understand how a window works, and how it receives messages.

If you are going to learn basic, don't use VB, use something like QBasic or PowerBasic. That will teach you some of the ideas of programming without turning you into a VB-zombie (hopefully).

Good languages to learn (pick one to learn first):
C
x86 Assembly
Java
Perl (not good first language)
PHP
