Black Lives Matter activists, who have protested inequality towards African Americans, especially in their treatment by law enforcement.
Caitlyn Jenner, whose coming out as a transgender woman prompted widespread conversations about gender identity and issues of equality for the LGBT community.
Travis Kalanick, who as CEO of Uber drove his car-hailing company to a nearly $70 billion valuation, but also drew criticism about the downside of the sharing economy.
Angela Merkel, who as German chancellor has been at the center of major news events this year, from economic strife in the Eurozone to Europe’s ongoing migrant crisis.
Vladimir Putin, who as president of Russia has defied Western sanctions over his country*s military activity in Ukraine to play a critical but precarious role in the war on ISIS.
Hassan Rouhani, who as president of Iran is seeking to bring his country out of pariah status and repair its sanctions-crippled economy by pursuing a nuclear deal with the West.
Donald Trump, whose populist rhetoric has made him frontrunner in the race for the Republican presidential candidacy and stirred debate about the party*s future.
What a line-up!
Trump, Putin, Al-Baghdadi, Jenner. BLEECH!
Hillary Clinton, whose populist rhetoric has made her frontrunner in the race for the Democrat presidential candidacy and stirred debate about the party's future.
The narcissist-in-chief is gonna be pissed that he did not make the list!

Leader of daeshbags is leading by a large margin unfortunately.
IF it is focused on US, then Trump hands down. The rest are bit players by comparison. Pervert in case of Jenner. At least Obama didn’t make the list.
Anybody that doesn’t think the freak Jenner won’t win the prize is pure bonkers. It is a done deal.
I notice who isn’t on the list. *snicker*
Breaking: It’s Angela Merkel.
Barack Hussein Obama: He's had a bad year, and this will give them a chance to prop him up a bit.
Bruce Jenner (I don't care what name he calls himself - he'll always be Bruce Jenner): Time may pick him in order to jump on the band wagon along with ESPN and Vanity Fair, telling us how "courageous" he is.
Black Lives Matter: It's the politically correct thing to do. Snubbing them would be racist in their minds.

Merkel
A woman and communist who is destroying her country and EU’s remnants of Western Civ.
I wonder how much the Sauds are paying her?
What, no clock boy?
Vote for Bruce “Caitlyn” Jenner. It will show what a mockery time magazine as well as our country has become.
