Barack Obama’s legacy may be under attack by President Trump — but he still has bragging rights as the most admired man in the world, according to a new Gallup poll.
The poll found 17 percent of people questioned named Obama the man they admired most, a drop from 22 percent last year.
Trump took second place with 14 percent, while Hillary Clinton was named the most admired woman for the 16th year in a row, with 9 percent of mentions, Gallup found.
Obama has now been named the most admired man 10 times in a row, trailing only Dwight Eisenhower, who earned the distinction 12 times.
The 44th president won all eight years he was in office, plus 2008 — the year he was first elected — and this year, his first as an ex-president.
Trump is one of few incumbent presidents who have not been named the most admired among all Americans. The incumbent has won 58 of 71 times.
Previous incumbent commanders-in-chief who did not finish first include Harry Truman in 1946-1947 and 1950-1952, Lyndon Johnson in 1967-1968, Richard Nixon in 1973, Gerald Ford in 1974-1975, Jimmy Carter in 1980, and George W. Bush in 2008.

Which one? Barky or Michael?
Thanks to your no barf alert, I barfed.
Perhaps he’ll get a second Nobel Peace Prize.
What a friggin’ joke!!!!!!
Without his mass media’s protection by his adoring national press corpse, he would be last. As would Hillary.
The nation’s future is in their national propaganda network. For worse, or even worse. Ain’t no better coming.
Propaganda.
I STILL see “Obama! A legacy to be treasured forever!” type magazines at my local grocery story. Really? A full year out of that anti-American POS being out of office? And now, we learn that not only is he the most admired man in the world, he’s virtually the most admired man EVER in the history of anything. Oooh! I feel go GUILTY for making that POS remark a moment or two ago. Not.
98% of Iranians and 99% of North Koreans voted him “most admired”.Of course they did so secretly.
April first is four months away
Obama, the Nobel Peace Prize Winner who said: “I’m really good at killing people.”
Bovine Excrement!
That's very inclusive.
Numbers are statistically insignificant and difference is less than margin of error.
This poll should not even be published as it is meaningless mathematically.
Right after I posted this thread, I came across the same poll (Gallup) stating that once again, Hillary Clinton was voted most admired for the 16th year in a row. I question the timing (and the sanity)involved. I think this is more press collusion because I’ve begun to see newspaper articles here and there indicating investigations in Washington are starting to credibly point to crimes of Obama and Hillary.
Here’s the HIllary thread:

And this poll will still claim he’s most admired when he’s finally locked up in Guantanamo with his Muslim terrorist bff’s
We are the world?
GOod catch - I didn’t read that far. Incredible.
I repeat, The Prisoners in the Gulags cried when Stalin died.
Not buying it.
Dorkbama the Muslim eunuch quota boy is an idiot and the world knows it.
Only the few who are more uneducated than Dorkbama believe he is smart.
Hence, the MSM and dimbulbcrats.
