If TIMES wanted to sell more papers- they should just put Barak as #1 becasue of course he IS the BESTEST PRESIDENT EVER!
Well iirc the list they issue out on their printed release will be ranked according to Times staff, the list posted here is going to stay on the internet.

Lol I don't think they actually use this list, they recognize how bad it will turn out to be. If you look, Shigeru Miyamato got voted #1 last year lol. #2 and #3 were Rain and Colbert. So yes, lighten up, they're just throwing this out for us to have fun.

Times person of the year poll was already sabotaged once by 2chan like 5 years ago for Tashiro Masashi, a singer (a damn good one at that, actually) who was convincted of voyeurism lol.

On September 24, 2000, he was sent to the prosecutor's office for filming up a woman's skirt with a camcorder in Tokyu Toyoko Line Toritsudaigaku Station in Meguro, Tokyo.


In 2001, users of internet forum 2channel voted en-masse Tashiro as Time Magazine's Person of the Year. This act was soon dubbed the "Tashiro Festival" (Tashiro Matsuri, 田代祭) by 2ch users. 2channel programmers developed many scripts such as "Tashiro Cannon" (Tashiro-hō, 田代砲), "Mega particle Tashiro Cannon" (Mega-ryūshi Tashiro-hō, メガ粒子田代砲), "25 repeated blows Tashiro Cannon" (Nijū-go renda Tashiro-hō, 25連打田代砲) "Super Tashiro Cannon" (Chō Tashiro-hō, 超田代砲) to be able to vote repeatedly. "Super Tashiro cannon" was so powerful that it crashed Time's server. Afterwards, "Satellite Cannon -Tashiro-" was developed, but it was not deployed. Due to the votes of 2channel users, he got to the No. 1 position temporarily on December 21, 2001. However, Time's staff realized that something was unusual, and Tashiro was removed as a candidate.[14]

Some of the list is actually really funny. I busted out laughing when I saw that boxer manny pacquiao and Tpain were both ahead of barack obama.

Also some of the pros/cons are hilarious.

Tyler Perry's.
CON: Do you know anyone who has ever laughed during a Tyler Perry movie or television show?

The poll's been manipulated by 4chan guys... notice how almost every person has been bombed below 20 points?

There's nothing very interesting or surprising about this.
