No

I'm at the maybe but veering more towards a no. He made such a fantastic impression in the run up the election and is an excellent orator, he genuinely seems to care where others haven't. However, he hasn't been in power long enough IMO to be worthy of the award. Another year would have been more appropriate I feel. But I do like him and I do believe he has the country's best interests at heart.

when I found out that Obama was running for president I said to my OH that it was the wrong time. If he becomes president now he will be used as a scape goat & the others will use this so that an African-American will have no chance in future.

I think he is a brilliant man, family man & president but feel this has just come too too soon.

It's like there is a pedastal being built with him on top & we all know what happens!

I have put maybe as I'm still not 100% of the man yet.. I think he genuinely means well and is 1,000,000 times better than Bush, but time will tell.. also I have a terrible fear for him, he has been likened to JFK and we all know what happened to him, I truly hope it doesn't, but there is still that thought at the back of my mind.

No it's far too early in my opinion, he's not been in office a year yet and there's a long way to go. I do think his intentions are good, I just hope he lives up to expectations. As you say Abo it's so easy to pull the chair from under him, we all know it can all come tumbling down in the blink of an eye.

I voted 'no'.

Very strange decision, IMO.

Someone like Morgan Tsvangirai would have been more deserving.

I am sure he is honoured and humbled by the peace prize, but a part of me suspects that, deep down, he would rather not have it. It adds to the pressure and the expectations.
I think he is a good man.

I loved the way he played the President in Deep Impact.  Now that's the sort of president we want!

PMSL I've just seen this on Trollcats!
On a serious note, I can't honestly see what the heck he has done to deserve it, there must be hundreds of more worthy people. Quite astonishing
Although the Nobel Peace prize has been pretty much discredited for me ever since they gave it to that evil old warmongering freak Kissinger

anyone that calls Kanye a twat gets my vote

I have said maybe I just hope he does make a difference and brings unity to the world
Sadly no one else has managed it
It is such a huge mantel to put anyones shoulders and I feel he has much to do in his own country to sort out poverty in lots of areas of America

No, not at all. He has done nothing to deserve it, and had only been in office a couple of weeks before the closing date.
It's absolute cobblers that he should win it. Morgan Tsvangirai should have got it.

A definate NO from me!

Definitely Yes!
