Time magazine's person of the year for 2015 is Angela Merkel, German chancellor. Runner-up is Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, leader of ISIS. Third is Donald Trump, US embarrassment. How do YOU feel about those? What criteria are used for the selections?

President Rouhani was also a candidate. I really wanted him to get it. At least he ended the whole nuclear discussions for good. Besides, I had voted him for president:-D

I say Merkel should get it. She influences more than Trump. Trump just spouts out what racists were already thinking. Merkel actually influences and makes changes. And I don't know about you but I'd rather not have ISIS on the cover of Time Magazine.
