You are all pretty funny. Ron Paul get "Person of the year"? Get a grip on reality people. While it would have been nice, it would never have happened, not because Time magazine is biased, but because Ron Paul DOES NOT DESERVE to be Time person of the year.
Time Person of the Year is reserved for people that have had a major impact on the world, something Ron Paul has not done yet and will not do until he is president. I don't think a presidential candidate running for office has EVER been Person of the Year until he was finally elected. If there's any exceptions - then it's possibly because the candidate running was a former president or vice president.
Ron Paul DID HOWEVER make Time magazines "people that mattered" section in the same magazine! That is amazing really, he is one of only 3 candidates that were featured in that section. We should be proud that our candidate was in "people that mattered".
Grow up people, there's no way a candidate, let alone Ron Paul, was going to be named person of the year.
