Obama is the most divisive president that the US has ever seen. The last person that should receive a prize for peace.

Re: The Nobel Peace Prize for 2009 went to Obama
Nevertheless, awarding Obama the Nobel peace prize is a sign of approval from international community's side of his politics, different from Bush's. However, in America this news caused doubtful joy, some journalists say he has not deserved it...some say it's too early for him a prize, because according to the rules of the Nobel prize committee candidature of a competitor should have been proposed a year ago, so his candidature was proposed after two weeks of his win in the president elections...At the same time, it is said that political life in America has become diverse and more citizens state their positions, and also that Obama has undertaken rescue of the American financial system and long-term re-structuring of economy.danyet wrote:Obama is the most divisive president that the US has ever seen.

Re: The Nobel Peace Prize for 2009 went to Obama
Obama has not even rescued the financial system. Actually very little money from the Stimulus has even been used! If it was so urgent to pass this Stimulus Bill, then why hasn't it been used? Answer: because it was a fraud from the beginning!
In reality Obama has not yet done anything! Except for his government takeover of some private companies. (he is a Marxist afterall) So far it is all talk. He was awarded the NObel simply because of his TALK.......not so amazing really when you consider that the peace prize was also given to a murderer called Yasser Arafat too! (So International approval really means nothing to me) and neither does this Peace Prize.

Obama is not that evil to be rebuked or that icon to be praised permanently.It seems the wisdom is in the middle.It,s better to let him do his efforts.there will be a long time to judge.Another point,have you ever pondered how cumbersome being president of u.s is.Sometimes we are unable to manage our home affairs let alone managing a superpower country!

Better not to let him do his efforts. All of his efforts are very bad for America and against our laws.bardia wrote:It,s better to let him do his efforts.there will be a long time to judge.

He is not evil absolutely, I think....I'm sure if he were the pr. of my country, things would be different, more better...maybe we should rent him.danyet wrote:Yes he is very evil!bardia wrote:Obama is not that evil to be rebuked or that icon to be praised permanently.

I did not vote because Hillary didn't win. It was a big disappointment. I have nothing against Obama's strategies or whatever he has in his mind to change the States. The problem I have with him is his background. Don't take me wrong. I have no problem with him being biracial. It's the he's the first African American President gets on my nerves. He's biracial, not just AA. Or maybe I'm being too stubborn with the term because I think AA means Africans born in America, which he is not. He's a mutt. Why couldn't he tell the media to stop with this first AA President thing and tell them to say what he really is? I guess making a big deal out of this wouldn't win the AA community. Sad!

Re: The Nobel Peace Prize for 2009 went to Obama
Yes i heard Obama's brother was a real "loser."
Did you know that Obama helped his friend, Odinga, get elected as President of Kenya. Odinga cause civil unrest because at first he lost the election but then told his supporters to protest. The supporters were Muslims and they burned to death women and children trapped in a church and about 350,000 people were displaced, and many people died.
Obama campaigned for and gave speeches for Odinga in Kenya in 2006. Many people died. = Obama gets Nobel peace Prize?
