Time Names Volodymyr Zelensky Person of the Year: ‘The Most Clear-Cut Choice in Memory
breitbart.com ^ | 12/7/2022 | Frances Martel

Time magazine announced Wednesday it had chosen Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky its person of the year for 2022, calling it an obvious choice in light of the head of state’s ubiquity and his ability to “galvanize the world” around his cause.

The “spirit of Ukraine,” a nebulous concept that apparently includes Spanish celebrity chef José Andrés, also earned recognition as a 2022 “person of the year.”

> they used to say the Time magazine’s man of the year was the biggest newsmaker of the year <

Yep. And that’s the way it should be today. So Zelensky really isn’t a bad choice.

The problem is that “Person of the Year” sounds like an award, an honor for doing something good. Perhaps it should have been called “Newsmaker of the Year” from the very start.

Has Gary Sinise ever been chosen for man of the year and if no why not?

Sounds good to me, though I know some here were hoping for Putin.

Zelensky may have a degree of corruption, my analysis is based on fighting a war against Russia.

In that, he’s a hero.

He’s risking a lot more than a mansion.

Why not Putin? Zelenskyy would hardly be newsworthy without Putin.

If Time’s award were actually based on actual, positive accomplishments for humanity, Musk would be the clear-cut winner - and that’s before the public service he did in purchasing Twitter.

RE: Volodymyr Zelensky has a mansion in Florida..

I keep hearing about this but nobody can show proof. At least give us the address or the county and town.

They named Reagan twice. They also named Churchill, and Pope John Paul.

What was the point you were trying to make again?

It use to be easy to google. But as soon as the left knows there’s something out there that chanllenges them - they bury the ways to find the link.

I saw pictures before they were ‘fixed’. If you doubt, try to find the link for ‘fake hate crimes’... You’ll be directed to liberal sites and clutter but you won’t fine the real site. Same with information of the kid who stood up to the Indian with his drum... good luck trying to find that one.

Let’s remind ourselves once again that Time’s criteria for choosing Person of the Year is … A person, a group, an idea, or an object that "for better or for worse . has done the most to influence the events of the year".

I can’t believe that woman has the influence that she has.

After her ‘Final Status’ on Jerusalem.

But the world 🌎🌍 slouches towards Zechariah 12:3.

Keep burdening yourself with Jerusalem, Victoria. I’m sure you think it will end well for you.
