I wouldn't even call it that; Person of the Year in the past has been a person/group of people/thing that has been influential or important but not always in a good way. ex: "The Endangered Earth" had been one.
Also, Gorbachev has been it 2 times, so Obama is not the first to be it twice, but I don't think he should have been it this year. I think Malala would have been a better choice, but Protesters were last year, so this may have been too repetitive as well.
