If you were to name a "Time" person of the year, who would it be?

I don't know but it sure as hell wouldn't have been George Bush!

I can't think of anyone (though Clinton, Nader and the Napster guy do come to mind) but I would like to see Time get their Man of the Year award mixed up with their Employee of the Month.

hum... that's a toughy. Maybe Bush-for having to put up w/ Gore being a sore loser.

I would choose two. I would nominate Barbara Bush for exemplifying the traditional First Lady, a quiet power behind the throne, and for being the first woman since Abigail Adams to be both the wife and mother of a president of the United States. I would pair her with Hilary Clinton, for seting a new model for the First Lady, an independent woman who is a public and political figure in her own right. They would both hate being coupled.

Hmmmmm, the most wonderful person in the world, my best friend Laura. No,  just kidding, actually, probably Hillary Clinton, because she's an amazing woman and a wonderful role model.

Person of the Year? Bill Gates. I admire his philanthropic work. Just a few days ago the Bill & Melinda Foundation donated $1 1/2 million to help develop drugs against parasitic diseases.

Right at the moment, the project of bestowing fame upon some worthy individual is much too complicated for me.
