    Adolf Hitler was the man of the year in 1938.

    Instead of a conventional portrait, the cover was an illustration by Rudolph von Ripper entitled ‘From the unholy organist, a hymn of hate’.

    Stalin in 1939 and 1942.

    There are a lot of lame ones, now that I look.

    Richard Nixon in 1971 and 1972, the latter of which he shared with Henry Kissinger.

    Ruhollah Khomeini in 1979. Ronald Reagan in 1980 and 1983. George H.W. Bush in 1990.

    Ted Turner in 1991. Sure, Time.

    Newt Gingrich?!
