I sreach to see if someone already posted this, but I didn't find anything so here it is.

[constitutional]

Good idea, lets not all flood it with RP message just for one day. Spread it out over the two upcoming months.

[AlexMerced]

yeah, it's already flooded with Al Gore and Ron Paul messages, although Ron Paul definetley has more.

The President Musharaff ones tend to be pretty funny.

I saw one for Obama and One for Petreus

then I saw a handful for Hillary

So it's pretty fierce battle between Gore and Paul

[Paulitician]

The thing is, Time's Man (or person) of the year goes to someone who "has done the most to influence the events of the year." Is that really Ron Paul? I don't see him as very influencial. At best, you can say he has opened debate over foreign policy. But, not too many people even know about him.

[DealzOnWheelz]

they would never let Hillary win "MAN OF THE YEAR"

[SeanEdwards]

Damn, there's a Ron Paul eruption happening on that page.

[jesshwarren]

i'd split the link. so they can't see where we come from ;)

[garrettwombat]

ehh all i see is al gore all over that thing... egh... i would puke if that man won "man of the year"

[MGreen]

Oh Christ, the Gore loving is impossible to stand. Several people calling Gore a hero and a man of principle who can't be bought. As if there's no money to be made through the climate change issue.

[Ron Paul Fan]

I put in my say! There's a lot of Al Gore's on there and for shame. Ron Paul has done more for this country than Al Gore ever will. Ron Paul for President. Ron Paul for Time Man of the Year.

[constitutional]

Angelina Jolie - LMAO
JK Rowling - ROFL
"Hilary Clinton she's worked harder at life than most people" HAHAHA!
"Hillary Clinton should be the person of the year. Her accomplishments will be an example for future generations of girls."

I CAN'T BREATHeeeee!!!!

"Hillary Clinton has by far exceeded anyones expectations, she is The Woman Of The Year."
"Hillary Clinton. For being the next president of the US so the most powerful "man" of the world."
"Hillary Clinto is the best choice this lady stays above all facts ,of a critcial time in the nation,she should be consider for person of the year,she ahs helped familes for along time,she has a great ehart of gold.with pure sincerity."


"Condoleeza Rice. She has done very well at one of the toughest jobs in the world. " LOL LOL LOL LOL
"Barack Obama should be the Person of the Year. He is the face of true change in America." Mind you, so should I then. I moved to U.S. not long ago.
"Hillary Clinton - she is an inspiration for all women. Brilliant, ambitious, generous." HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA

Exactly... If I had to say it's any one, I'd vote for Gonzo, even though he's already resigned as Attornery General.

[V-rod]

I think Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will be Man of the Year. He managed to get every government law maker talking about his dumb ass nonstop this year, and he is the direct target for our nukes, and will be one of the WW3 catalysts.

[foofighter20x]

Looks like I wasn't the only one who thought this...

From the Time website:

Posted by Jeremy Dies in Boston, MA
Time's Person of the Year should be former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. The former AG was at the epicenter of the biggest stories of the year - the US Attorney scandal, the authorization of torture, and the debate over unchecked executive power. Gonzales embodies the state of American politics in a very turbulent 2007.

[Joby]

This year it'll probably go to Gore...

...But when RP wins this thing next year it'll be a different story :D

I am going to gather that the election is going to get much more headlines next year in 2008 and I think Ron Paul should definitly be man of the year for 2008.

[Fox McCloud]

I put in my two cents for Ron Paul.

If he gets it, man, talk about major publicity!

I doubt he will though, Time is just another globalist supportive magazine, and thus they probably won't want Ron Paul on the front of it.

Then again, miracles do happen.

[d'anconia]

h ttp://time-blog.com/talkback/poywalkup07.php?x-up-%20destcharset=106

I certainly think he deserves it. He's the public figure I've paid closest attention to this year.

[AlexMerced]

I already made a thread about this, does anyone know of anything else we can nominate him for?

[Syren123]

Sure he deserves it. But Time Magazine doesn't usually go for people of integrity or real accomplishment. Maybe Dinesh D'souza is more their Man of the Year type. Kind of a conservative, but a warhawk extraordinaire.

They gave Jeff Bezos MotY for Amazon three years before Amazon even made one penny of profit. Idiots.

[tnvoter]

I'm sending them an email regardless :)

[d'anconia]

I already made a thread about this

Yeah I was reading through the comments and saw tons of Ron Paul support so hopefully we'll at least get an "honorable mention".

Regardless of what the idiots at Time Magazine think, Ron Paul is undoubtedly my man of the year (maybe even of the decade!).

[Syren123]

I'm sending them an email regardless :)

I love eternal optimism!:p

[Taco John]

It's going to be hard for Paul to beat Gore, but I'm all for it.

[Brutus]

Will they sell tickets to that?

[tnvoter]

The amount of people already responding to this has nearly brought a tear.. ;)

[SaratogaForRonPaul]

Gore is winning. You know what to do. Cut and Paste into a new browser:

I posted...

Ron Paul should without a doubt be the Person of the Year.
Dr. Ron Paul has done more to motivate the people of the U.S to get off their bottoms and get involved in their government again. He stands for truth in an age of lies and deceit. He stands for the The Constitution during a time when people are trying to undermine it. But most of all, he stands for THE PEOPLE, in a time when no one else does.

[thegearbox]

On the recomandation page Paul is leading by a land slide, and yet he isnt even mentioned in the poll.

[TobyPA]

seems to be something weird going on...when I refresh the page, to see new submissions, it seems to be re-submitting my post. Just and FYI so we don't get accused of 'spamming'.
:)

[Seanmc30]

There is no reason to think they wont pander to Gore like everyone else this year.

[Jordan]

Ron Paul is all over that page. If he was person of the year, that would certify a win. :D

[jrich4rpaul]

Paul is all over the recommendation page. Too bad Gore was chosen to win before it even started.

[Shellshock1918]

Awesome idea!!!

[Naraku]

I liked this idea:

"I am the greatest, vote for me! woop woop! wucka zing gong!"

[cien750hp]

if time listens then Ron will be the winner for sure. Just hope they realize every single one of us will be buying a copy when he does. However, refreshing the page resubmits your comment even though theres nothing in the box. Just a heads up

[ClayTrainor]

Al Gore deserves to be commended for spreading awareness of ManBearPig. :D

[thegearbox]

Maybe he could point out that such things as Brown's Gas have been around for years. Gore didn't do anything besides stating what everyone already knows. I also noticed that Hillary was on there, are you kidding me? Why?

[Naraku]

Al Gore deserves to be commended for spreading awareness of ManBearPig.

Not only that he's the man who single-handedly defeated ManBearPig.

[purplechoe]

bump

[cien750hp]

does anyone know who the right person is to maybe email and say, hey, look at the responses, ron paul has so much support, you should include him in the poll

[purplechoe]

another bump for the night crew... :)

[purplechoe]

another bump for the night crew... :)

one more for the late night crew...

[nullvalu]

oh those people saying Al Gore.. literally saying Al Gore is trying to save the world.. good god.

I sure hope they are listening.

[rice_classic]

Well, here's what I posted on the "vote"



RON PAUL. He's breaking down the wall. For almost 100 years the wolves have convinced the sheep that they have best interests of the sheep in mind. Ron Paul is willing to challenge this notion. With the onset of the internet and "reading" becoming more popular, the American public are starting to learn what was NOT taught to them in public schools and are outraged. They see clearly that they are being deceived, mislead, manipulated and spoon fed fear in every facet of popular media.

Ron Paul is starting to unite Americans. Look at the grassroots campaigners. Look at the 1 day fund raising, Look at the passion that exists in the people that support him. This passion does not and has not existed for any candidate that I remember in my lifetime.

It doesn't take guts to write books about a imaginary wizards.

It doesn't take guts to tell the world the sky is falling (however needed it may be).

It doesn't take guts to promote socialism (Sorry Hillary but you're a socialist.)

IT TAKES GUTS to sit in congress and be the only one to vote against bills that take away our money, our freedom, our rights and our privacy.

IT TAKES GUTS to go face to face with head of the Federal Reserve and tell him the system is broken and not just broken but intentionally created to cheat the public!

IT TAKES GUTS to run for President of the USA, amongst a corrupt empire funded by international interests and call for the end of corrupt and/or illegal entities like the Federal Reserve, IRS, Federal Income Tax and the Department of Education.

He gives us the details, he gives us the answers and he gives us genuine hope that all is not lost. And without saying it, without it needing to be said.

Ron Paul is running for President to bring and end to Theft and Corruption.

After 2008, America simply won't be the same!

[ValidusCustodiae]

they have to be kidding..

mahmoud ahmadinejad is a choice and Dr. Paul isn't?

[Richandler]

I wrote a while back about how Ron Paul is actually doing something about the Assault on Reason and how he realizes that some times the consensus needs to be challenged.

I'm rarely and advocate of sending everyone to a site but I think going and voting time.com person of the year poll is ok. Make them be heard that smug will not be accepted in America.

[JosephTheLibertarian]

I never thought for once they would even consider Ron Paul

[expatriot]

Will they sell tickets to that?

Actually, I represent Time for that event and I have my own commission allotment.

They go for $110 apiece before Dec 27, but at the door they will be priced in Euro€
so if you want a good deal let me know how many you want.

I make a special deal for group discount.:D

(Also ask about the bridges I have for sale, certified by the Army Corps of Engineers)

[d_goddard]

Thanks for think link. Added my RP suggestion! :)

"Posted by Jason Bell in Paoli, Indiana
I posted earlier to support Al Gore however after seeing all the posts for Ron Paul I looked him up and I want to change my choice from Al Gore to RON PAUL."

This just made my day. The Ron Paul virus is spreading. :)
