Glad to see the Obamas topping both lists.

Yikes! Jinping at #3 among the men, Modi at #4 and Putin at #12, Trump at #15 and Erdogan at #19??? Some people like their autocrats!

For the women, move Malala up to #3. Ellen DeGeneres? Get outta here!

Those lists appear to be constructed mainly of motherfuckers, so even adding a bunch of/more war criminals would probably improve it.

Well you see, if you stop the forever war in middle east your mother and sister and wife will immediately have to wear a hijab! Bacon will be outlawed! It's a glorious battle for freedom and American Way of Life (TM) and not at all something else.

lol at the methodology

quote:

From January to March this year YouGov gathered open-ended nominations from panellists across 42 countries and territories, asking them simply: “Thinking about people alive in the world today, which [man or woman] do you most admire?”

"tell me some names you recognise from the television"

e: admittedly they then went to more targeted "who do you like most from this list" questions later on

There's no U.S. president without blood on his hands and there's no American president who's been perfect (despite the dipshit in office who would tell you otherwise). But Obama did a lot more good than harm, and could have accomplished even more if it weren't for Republican obstruction at every turn.

Some are just loving nutters. Others despise U.S. intervention but that dates back decades and doesn't just rest on Obama's shoulders.

just imagine that I replaced both lists with the top posters both in post count and things I personally thought funny from the "Pissing with erections" thread and I'd say it's a dead heat.

You're so close. I don't care if you have a crush on the Obama family: I'm hoping to get you to think beyond individual presidents, and consider the historical geopolitics. Obama was supported by the ruling class specifically because Bush was so horrific for the US image on the world stage which inhibited their ability to engage in U.S. intervention.

Obama was supported by 69.5 million voters in 2008 and 66 million voters in 2012.

How many US voters have a substantial knowledge of foreign policy? Even Bernie knew this was basically a no-fly zone for the dumb-rear end average American.
