What Do You Think of the Barack Obama Time Cover?

What did you think of the Time magazine cover featuring Barack Obama? Write your thoughts below and your comment could be called out on "The Insider" on TV tonight!

 

2008 ushered in an amazing array of mega-stars who influenced the world, but only one man captured a nation to make history -- Barack Obama!

Appropriately so, TIME magazine has named the President-elect their Person of the Year. Watch this new video to see exclusive photos of Obama!

The cover is by ex-street artist Shepard Fairey -- whose poster of Obama became the iconic image of the campaign -- the artist has now created the first iconic image of the new President for TIME's Person of the Year issue -- a rich, multi-layered poster that echoes and expands on the original.
