Person of the Year?

According to news reports, Kamala Harris, our current Vice-president who does absolutely nothing as far as we can see, is on the "short list" to be named 2024 Person of the Year by TIME Magazine. This brings to mind a flood of questions, including who knew TIME is still being published? Does anybody read it? What does being named their Person of the Year indicate? Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

If the title indicates someone who dominated the news all year regardless of their inherent merit or value to society, Kamala might very well be it. But if it indicates someone who is outstanding in their field, or beneficial to all of society in some way, she's off the list.

If it means someone who is a complete know-nothing clown who happened to be in the right place at the right time and with the right skin tone, then she's it. But if it means an intelligent person who people revere, she's out.

Here's my short list for Person of the Year:

Donald Trump

Elon Musk

Vivek Ramaswamy

Benjamin Netanyahu

Tulsi Gabbard

I know I'm gonna be seen as a racist for not listing a black person. But hey -- P. Diddy seemed wrong.
