GALLUP'S LIST OF WIDELY ADMIRED PEOPLE

'Gallup's List of Widely Admired People', a poll of United States citizens to volunteer the names of the individuals whom they most admire, is a list compiled annually by The Gallup Organization. This is the only question that Gallup has asked every year since its founding in the 1930s. In December 1999, they concatenated this information with their final survey for the 20th century, producing a list of eighteen people from the 20th century who are "most admired":
#Mother Teresa
#Martin Luther King Jr.
#John F. Kennedy
#Albert Einstein
#Helen Keller
#Franklin D. Roosevelt
#Billy Graham
#Pope John Paul II
#Eleanor Roosevelt
#Winston Churchill
#Dwight Eisenhower
#Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis
#Mahatma Gandhi
#Nelson Mandela
#Ronald Reagan
#Henry Ford
#William Jefferson Clinton
#Margaret Thatcher
