Bashar al Assad should win hands down....especially off that poorly developed list.

Another strong contender....Snowden.

You obviously have no idea what the list is about.

It's about who has made some major impacts in the world during the year; good or bad.

You can do better, Coach. Call me a recidivist. Call me unreconstructed. But don't cal me voluminous.

The list is about which person/people/group/item has made the biggest IMPACT on the world.  

It's not a popularity contest, nor an approval/condemnation of anyone.  It is simply a measurement of who impacted the world the most that year.  

In 2001, most would agree there was one (evil) person that impacted history the most - Bin Laden.  However, Walmart promised they woudln't stock TIME anymore if they used him.  Too painful.  So they used Rudy instead.  No doubt Rudy had a positive impact in 2001, but WORLDWIDE, for our PLANET, it was bin laden... a series of wars followed.  Rudy was responding domestically to an event that bin laden had delivered, that affected people globally.   Most people overseas never heard of Rudy, and this is a GLOBAL award.

I actually WOULD argue that OBAMA should win in 2013, and not because he did good, but because he did bad.  SYRIA on a lie?  NSA wiretapping?  Job Disapproval Reaches a Career High while he's going full neocon?  Has ANYONE had a bigger impact on the world (Reminder: not good or bad, just impact) than Obama?

Syria's leader, yeah that's big.  I'd bet on Snowden - setting quite a trend - winning it.  

Stalin, Hitler, Araft... these men had the biggest impact on history those years, even if it was for very big and evil things.  It's not a positive recognition.  It's a measurement on what person did the most to affect planet earth.

Jason Cutler, his split with Kerry sent shockwaves through the industry and wider world. Even Assad ceased war operations to watch his Olympia comeback.
