TIME Magazine's Person of the Year 2012


US President Barack Obama is the first Democratic President since FDR to win more than 50% of the vote in consecutive elections and the first President since 1940 to win re-election with an unemployment rate north of 7.5%.

All elections are about change, and 2012’s was as well. Pretty much everyone voted for change of some kind: 49% of voters wanted to change the President, while 51% of voters wanted the change that Obama promised four years earlier.

For finding and forging a new majority, for turning weakness into opportunity and for seeking, amid great adversity, to create a more perfect union,Barack Obama is TIME's 2012 Person of the Year
