Since the list began, every serving President of the United States has been a Person of the Year at least once with the exceptions of Calvin Coolidge,

Keep in mind , that includes dubs

So you think George W. Bush belongs in the same category as Stalin and Hitler?

He was Time's person of the year in 2004.

I've got my picture as Time Man of the Year. It's in a drawer somewhere. Yeah, it's fake, but a guy can dream, can't he? At one time or another I've had my eyes fixed on being the A.L. MVP, winning the NFL rushing title, being co-star in a movie opposite Meg Ryan (circa 1992), being the Super Bowl halftime musical act, and being the hero who at 11:59, defused an H-bomb in Times Square set to go off at the stroke of midnight on New Years.

I might have to settle for "Grand Supreme Member Extraordinaire" here at C-D. Geez, I'm sure glad no one knows my real name.

I know Time isn't, I'm referring to the posters who assume its all about the US.
