He could be! PLEASE go to TIME's home page And click on the Person of the Year link to vote. I love J.K. Rowling , but dammit, we love our Steve Jobs even more!! Show your love today!
I couldn't find a link at that site, but I'd vote for "Mother Nature." She has picked up her visibility in recent years. Hurricanes Katrina and Rita are her poster children, good or bad.
EDIT: Duh. Top of the page. I didn't expect Condy's picture to be next to the link. Wow. Mother Nature is actually a choice!
There's a disturbing lack of quality choices listed. No international picks?

As much as "Mother Nature" dominated the news headlines this year, it's not truly a person.

Harry Potter wasn't written in Kansas City, you know.
Mother Nature's just had some hellacious PMS this year. All those poor people. I donated to NORF recently.

<<< ---- No, but J.K. visits here quite often. She's a big fan of the Negro Leagues Museum and Gates' BBQ.

The award has shifted metaphorically a few times... not always a man, or even a single person...
"The Computer"
The American Soldier
The WhistleBlowers
Twenty Five and Under
U.S. Scientists
And there have been quite a few multi-person wins, usually listed as "Men of the Year" until the last few years
Of course, naming Adolph seems a bit tacky now.
And the Planet has won before
Poor Steve....
