No. Let's make sure it DOES happen.

I'd love it if this gives Bernie more name recognition and increases his chances of defeating Hillary.

Then whoever wins the Republican nod will have a clear path to the Whitehouse.

Looks like you need to be a social network airhead to log in to vote.

No thanks, that says it all about the poll an likely results.

"Donald trump...Win or lose He has sure changed the dialogue about almost every issue in this country"

AND he's forcing the GOP candidates to "grow a pair" and fight back the media bias or die at the bottom of the pile!!

[Slyfox]

The three soldiers who stopped the mass murder on the French train.

Trump has concluded, apparently, that some things are worth raising the rabble about.

[tumblindice]

Kate “Bodacious” Upton

Given Time magazine's criterion--it is not necessarily an honor; rather, it is for the person who has had the greatest impact (for better or for worse!)--I would say that it is Barack Obama.

Oh, and his impact has definitely been for the worse, as far as I am concerned.

From a Blue Jays fan:

HECK NO!

[eyedigress]

My own vote would be Fred Thompson.

[MrBambaLaMamba]

I voted for the horse, the Caliph has the lock on this.

[Squantos]

The American Voter ......

[ChinaGotTheGoodsOnClinton]

No question. Jim Robinson.

For once I'd like to see some innocent child who is fighting cancer as the person of the year. These kids suffer, and demonstrate bravery far beyond anything I've personally ever come close to. I'm sick of seeing self-serving politicians etc. as ‘person of the year’.

[EveningStar]

For nearly ninety years, TIME has selected the most influential person of the year. From Adolf Hitler and Mahatma Gandhi to The American Soldier and The Protester, the title is given those who have--for good or ill--most influenced the news and our world in the past year.

Using that definition, I predict that Time will pick Donald Trump.

[zeugma]

I’m not a big fan, but with what’s happening in the campaign, it should probably be Trump.

I could also go along with Putin.

Or Merkle for facilitating the huge crisis with the syrian “refugees”

[a fool in paradise]

Clock Boy for scientific achievement.

[kempster]

The anti-establishment Republican.

[Cyman]

It will probably be Bruce Jender.”

That is some funny shite!

[dalereed]

Trump!!

[Fhios]

Trump should get it, but we would never hear the end of it from him.
