Another Nobel Prize for the USA!

Sorry, I just don't see that he has done much of anything to deserve such an honor (Al Gore either). Maybe after his presidency is over and 40 years have passed, then maybe.

The scientists who developed antibiotics JUST received their Nobel prize... so how long of a wait has that been?

If a team won that hadn't even played the game yet then yeah, I would be questioning the validity of the superbowl.

It has nothing to do with right or left/ republican or democrate. Obama hasn't done anything yet. In a few years, perhaps he will deserve the award, just not now.

Last year, Gore beat out a woman who risked her life to save Jewish people from the Nazis. What the heck was up with that?

I'd like to see who else was nominated and who our president beat out.

Although I think that some people are blinded by their hate of Obama and never want to admit that he does anything right, there are some people equally blinded by their love of him. I just don't see how anyone can conclude that he has done anything to deserve the award at this moment in time.

Archbishop Desmond Tutu:
"What wonderful recognition of someone who has already made such an impact on our planet with regards to the Muslim world, nuclear disarmament, climate change and, to some extent, the Middle East. He has reached out to the Arab world, including Iran, and North Korea.


In a way, it's an award - coming near the beginning of the first term of office of a relatively young President - that anticipates an even greater contribution towards making our world a safer place for all. It is an award that speaks to the promise of President Obama's message of hope."

Nelson Mandela Foundation:

"We trust that this award will strengthen his commitment, as the leader of the most powerful nation in the world, to continue promoting peace and the eradication of poverty."

I fail to see how this answers for his lack of accomplishment.
