Americans once again are most likely to name Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton as the man and woman living anywhere in the world they admire most, as they have for the past 10 years. The pair retain their titles this year, although by much narrower margins than in the past. Obama edges out Donald Trump, 17% to 14%, while Clinton edges out Michelle Obama, 9% to 7%.
The 2017 survey marks the 16th consecutive year Clinton has been the most admired woman. She has held the title 22 times in total, more than anyone else. Eleanor Roosevelt is second with 13 wins. Obama has now been named the most admired man 10 times, trailing only Dwight Eisenhower, who earned the distinction 12 times. Obama won all eight years he was president, plus 2008 -- the year he was first elected -- and this year, his first as a former president.
I love the fact that Hillary has the first spot on the female side, and is closely followed by Michelle Obama, with Melania Trump showing up eighth on the list well below Elizabeth Warren and Angela Merkel.
Trump showed up at number two, which is troubling, but he did lose a percentage points since last year.
However I seriously doubt that he will spend very long near the top, as the more we learn about him the less the American people like him.
Of course they are. And I'm sure this year that people tried to think of someone still in public life that they admired most.
ReplyDeleteSour grapes
DeleteWith 300,000 Russian trolls voting for Trump and he STILL only got 14%? Amazing!!
ReplyDeletePutin would have been better off dealing with Democrats/Clinton then this shit. Pulling this crap backfired terribly and will cost putin his election scam in Russia. Russians are pissed and protesting.
DeleteI was surprised about number two,you may be right about the trolls.
DeleteSee what putin has accomplished, doubting poll results
Senator Clinton should file a lawsuit. She has every right.
ReplyDeleteIf it were me, and it isn’t, I’d let it go as she has BUT do not think for one minute she does not know exactly what happened and who is responsible.
Delete“Time for life and grandchildren,” while the rest of us suffer for it. I don’t think that any of them give a shit! They’ve made their money and then some.
Pardon the question, but lawsuit for what exactly?
Delete2:08
DeleteShouldn't she be referred to as Secretary Clinton. No?
I don't see how any usa citizen can let this go let alone Senator Clinton. She spent her life preparing for this election and she won legally. Defamation of character, monetary damages, professional damage, Election fraud, harm to health, and so many more charges that would apply. America cannot move forward until justice is served to all involved. Americans additionally will file charges against the RNC, GOP, NRA, FEC, FTC, EPA, and more on her behalf.
DeleteLawsuit for defamation of character
Delete5:23 PM - $arah is still referred to as “governor” even though others did her job for her and she quit.
DeleteOh god you people are fruitcakes.
DeleteAll of you.
6:18. LOL.
8:43 only fruitcake here is you.
DeleteOh chucks 8:43 aka useful IDIOT, yer god should tell you its not nice to work for the devil. poor bot.
Delete6:18: "She spent her life preparing for this election and she won legally."
DeleteYou got that one a little off. She "lost" legally. "lost".
i totally agree.
ReplyDeleteMelanoma wasn't even on the list I saw. They must have cut it off short.
ReplyDeleteI don't see how Trump could even get as high as 14%. He'll be lower down next year, and the following.
Its more like 10%. The 10% that paid to rig the election and receive the tax gift to pay them back.
DeleteShe got 1% or less,not bad for a kgb agent
Delete"The President thinks that he can fool the American people into thinking that he is working and not golfing every day in Florida as long as the media captures no video footage of the perpetually on vacation Trump hitting the links. Trump isn’t fooling anybody. The American people know that he is costing them millions of dollars in vacation. Trump can’t handle being under the microscrope that is the US presidency.
ReplyDeleteThe spotlight is on him 24/7 and Donald Trump can’t handle it.
A man who has spent decades building and living in his own mythology can’t deal with the cold reality that he no longer controls his own story."

They hired a huge semi to block CNN from taping the golfing fool. So classy. So transparent. So 1st grade.
DeleteHe is such a pathetic person. How on earth can anyone admire such a disgusting human. He has zero good traits. He is not even a good liar.
DeleteYes well so what where does it get us until we make him pay for his own vacations.
DeleteThe idiot supporters think he deserves a vacation from working so hard
He wont get much exercise in public prison, and his resorts seized and sold to pay the American people back. Let the ass enjoy his last few days rolling in his own manure. We do have compassion for idiots. He was born that way.
Deletelol. He can do as he pleases. He is the President you little beanie wienies.
Delete"Caputo went back to the blame Obama well, “I’m not privy to that information. I do know that the recommendations that Obama administration’s gave were not followed by his own administration.”

Yea! Outstanding duo!! Love them both!
ReplyDeleteI remember 2008 well enough, all the backstabbing between the two to be the nominee. "It's just politics," they say. I'd be fired for that at my job. Laugh away.
Delete@3:15, It's called Politics.
DeleteIn other words, its all an act! ;)
Delete3:42 PM - as Steve Martin would say, "exccuuuuse meeeeee!"
DeleteEverybody was kung fu fighting. Those cats were fast as lightning.
Also too, she had to have her arm twisted before she'd take the consolation prize of Secretary of State, a very gracious offer from Obama if you ask me, especially after how he was treated by Bill during the primary.
DeleteThe Washington post put out an article only on fox about the Clinton campaign scandal. Only on fox they accused her of laundering money? Good gosh the dotard republican are so obviously desparate. The entire party are pure liars and garbage. It could be in their DNA....the hateful liar mutation.
ReplyDeleteThey didn't get the alien DNA.😆
DeleteThey got the defective genes of hate DNA mutations.
DeleteAnd look where this got her. Even with the illegal alien vote in California securing her the popular vote, this old lying criminal hag still lost.
ReplyDeleteGallup stopped polling presidential primaries and elections for a reason. Perhaps you should look up what the reason was there Minister of Misinformation.

DeleteGive it up moron. You are not useful any longer. The scam did not work. Now move along and get a real job.
DeleteYa been gassed by the large Russian rump. Reach down slowly and pull yer head out of trumps rump sucker.
DeleteBy the time this real time crime is over trump and stumps will be sorry that they did it.

The internet hammers Vanity Fair for ‘bad video’ urging Hillary Clinton trade politics for knitting
ReplyDeletehttps://www.rawstory.com/2017/12/the-internet-hammers-vanity-fair-for-bad-video-urging-hillary-clinton-trade-politics-for-knitting/
https://twitter.com/hashtag/CancelVanityFair
So @VanityFair decided that the best way to end 2017 was to take a repulsive cheap shot at @HillaryClinton, one of the most accomplished women in the history of the United States.
https://twitter.com/peterdaou/status/945817745685471234
If you subscribe to @VanityFair cancel your subscription. They produced a mean-spirited, sexist revolting video telling Hillary Clinton to go away and take up knitting.
https://twitter.com/Belairviv/status/945861576619413505
Reading the #CancelVanityFair tweets. What a completely idiotic unforced error on the part of @VanityFair. Like who thought that was a good idea? How many people approved it? Someone is really bad at their job.
https://twitter.com/Travon/status/946061766097858560
Isn't Donald Trump older than Hillary? But Trump's tiny hands can't handle knitting needles.
DeleteWho wrote the article? Who is behind it? I wont be subscribing nor visiting their site.
DeleteI do believe the entire thing was done a bit "tongue in cheek" however, Vanity Fair obviously forgot that in the days of Trump most liberals have misplaced their senses of humor.
DeleteTrump's tiny mind can't handle checkers.
Delete6:37pm, tongue in cheek is supposed to be funny. The article was dumb. Take your "liberal" talk and shoce it up your ass.
DeleteI was one that was going to subscribe to Vanity Fair and after I reviewed their various topics (and slants written) decided not to.
ReplyDeleteLet's be honest about this. Melania Trump should be the Most Admired Woman
ReplyDelete4:25 PM Why, because of this?
Deletehttps://www.latinlife.com/article/2864/melania-trumps-girl-on-girl-photos-from-racy-shoot-revealed
Melaria has not accomplished one fucking thing in her life. There's nothing to admire, there's nothing to emulate, there's nothing to admire unless you're into tacky, naked photos. Yeah, honest my ass, she's a whore.
DeleteWhy? What is there to admire??
DeleteThank you 4:59!
DeleteDue to her pu grabbed?
DeleteDue to her undetected english skills?
DeletePoor melanomia,all that money and stil doesn't understand the word appropriate and has no fashion sense.
DeleteBS. Putins girlfriend and gift to nasty don the con does not belong in public, she like hubby should not be occupying the peoples house. not fit, its just the fact that she is not a good example for our young women or girls just like her sugar daddy is not an example for young men or boys.
DeleteClinton has won the past 16 years; Obama the past 10
ReplyDeleteThis is true.
ReplyDeleteAmorka loves Obama and Hillary and Biden,.....
Stop watching any news thats put cheeto fat eff up everytime, sick of all news showing the ugliest man in the usa.
I'm amazed that the third wife appears anywhere on the list. Like her husband, who also has no right to appear on the list, she seems to be incapable of filling the position that she now occupies.
