Person of Interest?!....Time announces nominees for 'Person of the Year'.....

[Dennis S]

I'm taking my name off the list and won't accept it even if they give it to me.

#MeToo this year

[hal]

#metoo isn't a person - should mean instant disqualification.

Patty Jenkins may be a good director, but I had to look her up - instant disqualification.

Really, the list should consist of Trump, Kim and maybe Mueller. Everyone else should be WAY down below these...

[NewtonMP2100]

....they have said that 'Person of the Year' doesn't have to be an actual person....it can be a thing, concept, etc......

[hal]

They're wrong - a person is a person. Other things are not.

(in case it isn't obvious - this is my opinion)

[sekker]

Kaepernick this year has my vote.

Mueller next year - one way or another!

[hal]

There are still plenty of people that have no idea who Kaepernick is. The same can't be said about Trump or Kim. But Mueller for next year sounds right on.

[Filliam H. Muffman]

A mirror cover with #metoo?

Pretty much. I have only a passing familiarity with Kaepernick and only through what you guys n gals have posted here as I simply have no time to watch TV any more. Don't need TV to keep up with Trump and Kim. I have less familiarity with Mueller (though more than Kaepernick) but it makes sense that he may be a better choice for next year.

1968 - The Apollo 8 Astronauts
