Do you think Mother Teresa should have received Nobel prize long time back?

JackRoy @JackRoy (242) • United States 16 Nov 10

She should have been given Nobel for peace a long time back than originally she got. What she did for human being and humanity for almost 50 years or more is awesome. Despite that she got Nobel in late 70s. Don't you think Mother...

Obama and the Nobel Prize

brothertuck @brothertuck (1257) • United States 15 Oct 09

First off a disclaimer, I am not saying that Barack Obama was the best choice for the Nobel Peace Prize, as it is subjective and each nominee has merit. It was a shock that he won with only being in office for just over 9...

Obama and the Nobel Peace Prize

eclecticsteve @eclecticsteve (253) • United States 11 Oct 09

It's always nice to see someone from your country win the Nobel Prize, especially if it is your leader. I'm glad he said in one speech that he doesn't deserve it. I'm also glad he is accepting it even though he feels he doesn't...

Yep, I said it. As much as I support our President, and love the work he has done so far, I don't believe that he deserves a Nobel Prize. Why do you ask? What work has he completed on a GLOBAL scale that has brought peace? He is...
