Americans named Hillary Clinton the "most admired" woman for the 15th year in a row, according to Gallup's annual list. President Barack Obama was dubbed the most admired man.

Pope Francis came in third, followed by Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rev. Bill Graham, with former president Bill Clinton and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tying for sixth place. The Dalai Lama, Bill Gates, and Vice President-elect Mike Pence, in 10th place, rounded out the category.

Other women to make the top 10 were German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Oprah Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres, Queen Elizabeth, human rights advocate Malala Yousafzai, former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Massachusetts Sen.
