Obama beats out Jesus as America's hero

SUN-TIMES STAFF
ROCHESTER, N.Y. — Americans named President Obama as their No. 1 hero, followed by Jesus Christ and Martin Luther King, in a new Harris poll.
Others in the top 10, in descending order, were Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush, Abraham Lincoln, John McCain, John F. Kennedy, Chesley Sullenberger and Mother Teresa.
People were asked whom they admired enough to call their heroes. Those surveyed were not shown a list of people to choose from. The Harris Poll was conducted online among a sample of 2,634 U.S. adults by Harris Interactive.
This question was first asked in a Harris Poll in 2001. In that survey Jesus Christ was the hero mentioned most often, followed by Martin Luther King, Colin Powell, John F. Kennedy and Mother Teresa.
The biggest changes upwards on this list into the top 10 since 2001, apart from Barack Obama, were:
- The Apostleship Of Barack Obama?
Before long, it will be blasphemy to criticize Barack Hussein Obama (from the Daily Caller with a hat tip to Debbie of Right Truth): Book compares Obama to Jesus Christ and Martin Luther King Looking for something to read as Thanksgiving approaches?...

I think this is extraordinary and frightening, so I'm bringing it back up to the top. Let me be clear, there is not really anything I find objectionable in the words. The problem here is the exaltation of Obama to an almost god-like quality; a mere...

The biggest changes upwards on this list into the top 10 since 2001, apart from Barack Obama, were:
— George W. Bush was rated only 19th in July 2001, when he had been president for six months, and is now number 5 on the list.Heroes who were in the top 10 in 2001 who have fallen sharply this year include:
— John McCain, who was not in the top 20 in 2001, is now number 7.
— Chesley Sullenberger, the pilot who landed his jet safely in the Hudson River, is ranked number 9.
— Colin Powell, who was number 3 and is now number 16.
— John Wayne, who was number 8 and has dropped out of the top 20.
— Michael Jordan, who was number 9 and is no longer in the top 20.
— Mother Teresa, who was number 5 and is now number 10.
