Honestly, if it wasn't for how dubious Time's Person of the Year is, I'd say good for her for being this year's one.
Other things that have been made person of the year (which is why I say dubious. Merkel ain't all that bad.)
Every single human being alive in 2006.
The Computer.
Every single Hungarian freedom fighter that failed in the 1956 uprising.
All United States Scientists.
All 1966 United States citizens under the age of 26.
The Middle Americas.
Every single woman in America.
The entire planet.
Every single US Soldier.
All protesters.
Every single person who helped combat ebola.
It seems like an honor but the requirements are pretty low all things considered. That isn't to say she didn't earn it. She's a heck of a lot better leader than the first German to make to be Person of the Year.
