Person of the Year 2008

So, I was reading Time's articles about Person of the Year 2007, and started wondering who would be shortlisted for PoY 2008. But anyway, I had an idea; why don't we do Person of the Year or something on this forum?

Like something where people nominate people and the top 6 or so get voted for to get the award? So, for example, everybody nominates somebody, and the top 6 (in this case, Barack Obama, Vanessa-Mae, David Cameron and three other people) get voted for in a poll. The winner (let's say Barack Obama) wins the award.

So, if you want to nominate people, then go ahead, I guess...

Nominations
Sarah Palin
Barack Obama
Tom Cruise
Alex Munroe - 3 Nominations
Chuck Norris - 2 Nominations
Jesus
Satoshi Tajiri

Sorry, we don't do popularity contests. EVEN IF THEY'RE NOT ABOUT FORUM MEMBERS.

EDIT: Oh wait. I vote for Sarah Palin! I love her.
 
MD nominated Sarah Palin. It was probably jokingly, but a nomination is a nomination, and unless he tells me to take it off, I can't. He might genuinely want to nominate her.

Okay, so did I get this straight: we nominate people, then we vote for the ones we like, and the top 6 have absolutely nothing to do with anything, and the winner is the winner - right?

Oh, it's on, little man. It's on.
 
The six people who received the most nominations get put into a poll where people vote and we get the Person of the Year.
 
I nominate myself, to compete with Alex Munroe.

If I can't nominate myself, then I also nominate him.

GO FOR GOLD MAN (unless I am competing with you in which case go for silver)
