Way to go!!

America's reputation in the world is not good. Mostly because of their republican presidents but hopefully this one has help bring about a change. Only time will tell.

Now if it had been called the Noballs prize Obama and many more of his ilk would be well qualified.

Well, he got the prize, has he brought peace to the world, yet?

I think Obama himself would have been uncomfortable receiving the prize at this point, knowing full well that he could hardly refuse it without intense criticism and in receiving it would result in almost the same criticism. A rock and a hard place comes to mind. He has been accused of being arrogant ,and at the other extreme of being obsequious. He has inherited a shambles left by corrupt and self serving, obscenely rich bunch of crooks and I think it's not going to be easy for him to accomplish much in one term.
