Did the magazine get it right by choosing President Barack Obama for the recognition? This is the second time he has been named Time Person of the Year.
Time Magazine announced Wednesday that President Barack Obama was named 2012 Time Person of the Year. Obama beat out runner up Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani teenager shot in the head by the Taliban for sticking to her principles for women’s rights.
