In a surprise to no one, Time magazine named President-elect Barack Obama its "Person of the Year" for 2008.
The magazine said Obama "has come to dominate the public sphere so completely that it beggars belief to recall that half the people in America had never heard of him two years ago."
��
The magazine has named Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, French President Nicolas Sarkozy, Gov. Sarah Palin and Chinese director Zhang Yimou as runners-up.
���
Last year's winner was Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin. Previous individual winners have included Bono, President George W. Bush and Amazon.com CEO and founder Jeff Bezos.
