Bill Clinton is the most admired man in America and first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton tied with Nobel Peace Prize winner Mother Teresa as the nation's most admired woman, according to a new CNN/USA Today poll of 1,016 Americans. The poll, conducted by the Gallup Organization, said former President Jimmy Carter was the second most admired man. Sitting presidents, the pollsters said Tuesday, usually take the top spot. Former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, former first lady Barbara Bush and talk show host Oprah Winfrey completed the list of the five people Americans admire most.
