Who's Canton's Person of the Year?

TIME magazine named President Obama their person of the year for the second time. Tell us who you think should win from our town!

 

On Dec. 19, Time magazine named President Obama their Person of the Year, again!

The magazine invited votes on 40 candidates, including the president, Gabby Douglas and Kim Jong Un. Other options included The Mars Rover and the Higgs Boson Particle, Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi, and Apple CEO Tim Cook.

But, the president took the title again four years after he first won the award as president-elect in 2008.

But who cares about the same-old, same-old? Who is Canton's Person of the Year—the man or woman who, in Timespeak, "most influenced the news this year for better or worse?"

So, what do you think, Canton? Tell us your pick in the comment section below!

Thanks for the nomination!

I would like to nominate Nick Taylor with Taylor Construction from Canton. He did a great job on repairing my home after a tree fell on it during the holiday. Professional yet very personable service. He saved our holiday !
