Seems like a sexist poll. Otherwise Betty White would've cleaned up!

Why would anybody put down a politician as the person they most admired?

WTF is wrong with people? If you look at the historical list, it's almost completely filled with American Presidents.

Maybe that's what they know?

That's a bit of a sad reflection on what people do in their spare time, don't you think?

Well it's all about who gets the most votes, which means who is the most well known, basically. That limits the possible winners to basically presidents, maybe a rare celebrity, or a recent national hero. My dad is one of my most admired men, yet he never even cracks the Top 10 of that Gallup poll, wtf.

They said most admired not most wanted.

I voted for his dad in the last poll. I think that's why they cancelled it this year.
