Former President Barack Obama is Americas most admired man for the 10th consecutive year, according to new survey data from Gallup.
The annual poll has been taken every year but one since 1946 and asks respondents to name their most admired man and woman, as well as their second choice.
Obama came in first this year, with 17 percent of the vote. President Trump followed close behind, with 14 percent. After Trump was Pope Francis (3 percent) and the Rev. Billy Graham (2 percent), with several other political, spiritual and business leaders being named, including Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, Tesla CEO Elon Musk and the Dalai Lama

Another very questionable poll from what may be a questionable source.
Hahahaha!
Michelle didn’t place?
My first choice would be Netanyahu, followed closely by Trump.
The poll was taken at the California State Institution for those even more mentally impaired than the governor.
You mean Sasquatch Wookie? I think the poll was for humans.
President Hillary who, according to pollsters, won the EC by a landslide is very popular too.
By who? Marxist commie “perfessers” and their braindead and retarded child “students”? Although, I guess he should be admired for getting away with 8 years of racist batting, cop killing, Constitution trampling hated of America and thievery.
Naw...Moonbeam isn’t impaired...he is corrupt.
The poll was taken at the California State Institution for those even more mentally impaired than the governor.
Their school motto is “We’re all here because we’re not all there”
This poll, like the Hilliary poll, must have been dominated by the enemedia responding to get these kind of sick results.
CGato
It’s laughable to call someone with a 17% upvote, the most admired man in America.
“Former President Barack Obama is Americas most admired man for the 10th consecutive year, according to new survey data from Gallup.”
What ghetto or college campus was that? Or was it Sweden or Germany?
The only surprising thing here is why wasn't Øbama the most admired "man" in this ridiculous poll since 1946 for 71st consecutive years?
Parenthetically, the aggregate response for the question Most Admired FEMALE for Friend/Relative & Other was higher than that for the listed men in 2016 and 2017. Or, put another way, our alleged American nation of misogyny admires female family members or friends MORE than the male brethren AND any listed male OR female.
Now, I think Trump has been a great President, making good on his MAGA pro,sir. But even if Reagan was President, I'd answer either Friend/Relative or Other as someone I admire (and here is the operative word) MOST.
This should be good news to most of us. The highest level of admiration shouldn't go to a politician, musician, movie star, or basically a stranger...that borders on idolatry. I'll stick to Jesus or God on the male side, and my wife on the female side.
