Sorry, Donald, in this ‘most admired’ poll you’re a loser

And you lost out to President Obama.

Obama topped Gallup’s annual list of the men Americans most admire, while Hillary Clinton was named the country’s most admired woman for the 15th year in a row.

In a poll asking Americans to name the man they most admire in the world, 22 percent of respondents picked the outgoing president. In second place was his successor, Donald Trump, favored by 15 percent.

According to Gallup, sitting presidents generally come in first in the poll, although Obama bested George W. Bush in 2008, before Obama took office and when Bush had a low job approval rating.

      I think they meant 1.5%. Just forgot the decimal.

    It’s too bad the future administration can’t learn this.

    President’s are judged in history compared to
    their surrounding Presidents, sandwiched
    between Bush II and Trump, Obama’s legacy
    in history is solid and secure, History is
    written by educated people not by fox-bots.

      They say “History is written by the victors”, but what happens when said victors can’t expunge history?
      The internet and faster/cheaper/better methods of information processing and data storage will insure that Trump cannot pull a “Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia” play.
