  • What woman that you have heard or read about, living today in any part of the world, do you admire most?
    • Hillary Clinton - 12
So 19 people said they admire Obama and 12 people said they admire Hilary and we get a declaration they are the most admired in the world.
Yeah, I believe I saw a poll a few years ago where Obama won most admired and least admired. It doesn't take a lot of votes to win either when you have Billions of people to choose from.

Obama's favorability is still under water...indicating his net favorability is poor.

It is amazing how many people here apparently don't know that Gallup has run this poll every year for about the past 60 years, and with the same methodology.

Here's the link to gallup - Clinton Most Admired Woman for Record 20th Time

And they are incapable of a broader base sample? Political poll, not meant to be worth anything.

I would have answered that poll "Colin Powell and Condi Rice"!
HRC and BHO would not even make the top one hundred in my list.

Admired for what? For Obama's ability to make speeches where he continually insults and maligns the American people? And admire Hilary for her ineptitude and her ability to lie?

And in the next poll, the vast majority of Americans say Hilary is not honest, and not trustworthy. It just shows how useless an inaccurate some of these polls can be.

True, I hate the fact the ones in place are so bad, that we would be forced into this decision in the first place.

Not easy to get more liberal than that.
