Also on the list are BLM, Caitlyn Jenner and Rouhani. If any of the four win, Time should be completely ostracized by everyone in the US. They won't be, but should be. The other 4 are legitimate whether I agree with them or not.

I would like to see a "Nobody" from "Nowhere USA" win for once for doing something good rather than another hack.

Oh well...it's always nice to dream!

It isn't like Time magazine hasn't made a cottage industry out of putting the bottom of the barrel as the 'Person of the Year' on the front of their rag...

1938 - Adolf Hitler
1939 - Joey Stalin
1942 - Joey Stalin
1957 - Nicky Khrushchev
1979 - Ruhollah Khomeini
2007 - Vlad Putin


So I ask you... why NOT put the leader of ISIS on the cover?
I'd venture to say that both militarily and politically he has been more successful than the President of the United States and the leaders of the European Union.
Give him the cover... he's earned it.

I remember once they put the American Soldier on the cover back in 2004? I'm seeing now how they really saw us then.

I'd go for Merkel. She's the only one who has timing and headspace right.
