This commentary caught my eye today. From Market Watch of all places. It started me thinking about who would be a good candidate for person of the year.

JON FRIEDMAN'S MEDIA WEB
Time should name Stewart, Colbert as POY
Commentary: The Person of the Year honor would be appropriate
NEW YORK (MarketWatch) - I think Time magazine should name Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert to be its Person(s) of the Year.
Even if you merely think of them as comedians, Stewart and Colbert reflect the restless mood of our nation. Each expresses the disgust of the electorate by personifying the growing "fake-news" boom. It has become a rallying cry for the disenchantment of millions of Americans. As the Republican leadership learned the hard way on Election Day, the country is fed up.

Given the historical siginificance of the election results this year, I feel sure that it should be someone from the left. Whether it's a politician, comedian, or commentator. What do you think? Below are just a few that immediately come to mind.
