Obama: Time's Person Of The Year


Surprised? Time Magazine has picked Barrack Obama as it's 2008 Person Of The Year. Time says, "In one of the craziest elections in American history, he overcame a lack of experience, a funny name, two candidates who are political institutions and the racial divide to become the 44th president of the United States."

The runners up? Quite a collection:
U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, French President Nicolas Sarkozy, Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin and Chinese director Zhang Yimou.
