This is great news! Hope things will continue to change in US.
The most bogus/undeserved prize evergiven is this to President Obama.
When guys like M.K.Gandhi have not been given while a guy with a single senatorial stint and just 9 months into office gets it?, where is the end.
May be they will award another to Michelle, Sasha, Maliya or even their family dog BO.
Honestly after this I think Mayawathi or Laloo or even Karunanidhi, late YSR Reddy or even Jayalalitha can win this.
Why shouldn't India lobby for Sonia Gandhi win this award.
The Noble Prize has been made a JOKE after this particular award.
What kind of response also from Pres.Obama after receiving this award.
I was woken by my daughter and told that I won the prize and it is also BO's birthday and also a long weekend.
Poor taste of response.
Similarly when he was awarding the highest scientific awards to the best US scientist in White house he starts out with the speech that my daughter has a science project due and can you help her?.
Off late his speeches lack coherence or does not reflect seriouseness of the event.
Not maturing into a Statesman!.

Sunny Leone a true Canadian DESI now back in India !.
He was nominated just 2 months in the office so that is even so more undeserving. I believe he was given in the hope he does not start any more wars!!! A noble peace prize winner would not start a war!!!

I think you are over reacting on his statements - I think you didn't understand his sense of humor. It's common among most leaders around the world
I am totally agree with Vandemataram.
He should not win this award. He has done nothing for peace. US still fights with Afghans and Iraq. Not a little peace has been established after he became president.
It seems funny to me when I heard this news.
