Julian Assange Person of the Year

Skip the article and vote for Julian Assange

Time Magazine is running their regular Person of the Year contest, and Julian Assange could seriously win! My vote, however, was not only to show support for Assange, but also to support the freedom of information worldwide.

Julian Assange currently (as I write this) has a 89/100 average approval rating which has put him in first place, just above Recep Tayyip Erdogan who has an average rating of 83/100. Another person of interest is Barack Obama who is at 60/100.

Please note, you rank these people on a scale of 1 to 100. It is not a "I support this person" or an "I don't support this person" vote. You show how much you support this person.

What if Julian Assange Won?
If Julian Assange happened to win, I think it would make politicians everywhere realize that we desire freedom of information, free speech, and that we don't want Internet censorship.

Vote for Julian Assange!
