Not saying President Obama is or isn't going to eventually be deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize, but lets look at who is deserving of it NOW. There are numbers of people who have committed their lives to promoting peace, and who have risked EVERYTHING.
For example, Greg Mortenson has committed his life to building schools and providing education to all, including girls, in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Then, there is Sima Samar, who overcame the odds as a Hazara and a woman, to become a doctor and a powerful advocate in Afghanistan for human rights.

There are so many deserving people who were robbed of this prize, and robbed of the money award that would have, no doubt, been used to further the good that they have actually done and continue to do.
