Gallup just announced yesterday that Barack Obama is the most admired man in the world with 17% of the vote.

The Donald and the Pope tied for 2nd place with 5% each.
The Donald's excuse will probably be that the sitting President always gets first place, but that's not exactly the case, although it's usually so.
Most of the sitting Presidents got the top place the year they were inaugurated and the year their tenure ended. Bill Clinton's was in 1993 - 2000. So a sitting President who served 2 terms was normally the top choice 8 times and those like GHW Bush, serving one term was the top choice 4 times.
BUT in 2008, when statistics say that GW Bush (who was still in office) should have gotten the top vote, it was Barack Obama, instead, so GW only had 7 yrs to be the Top Gun. Now, hopefully, if Barack gets voted the top man in 2016 he will have broken the record having been the top man 9 times. (you have to scroll down to get the older stuff, but it's right there in black and white). Even if Barack doesn't make it in 2016, he still has his 8 yrs of being Top Gun. YOU GO, OBAMA!! LOL

Interesting stuff. You won't hear Trump talking about it. He's too busy, back on the campaign trail sliming his GOP opponents and added a new target. Bill Clinton.
If you watch/listen to the video you will note how The Donald managed to evade the commentator's last question before the time ran out. Sneaky, lying POS.
