I do not mock him for this at least, it was not his fault, but that of those hopeless idiots in Oslo who totally overestimated themselves and the influence they could cast on world affairs.

I think that was more about awarding the man who so called pushed America forward past its racist past by becoming the first black man to win the presidency.

Sadly that is a fairy tale.

America will always have this problem, and a man as weak as the president will not be the one to "unify" the races.

I do not want to interfere in Syria, no matter the outcome it will simply breed more hate for America, imperialistic accusations. etc...

There was a time when other countries respected us, now they just fear us. I do not want that.

Which is a violation of Noble'S intent, who clearly said that the Nobel peace prize is to be awared for accomplishments acheived regarding ending wars and demilitarisatioin in general. Women'S rights, ending genocides, ecology, racism porojects - all this is nothing that the Nobel prize has been founded for by Nobel. Many of the past nominations, are abuses. If I were Nobel, I would raise from the grave and end the hijack. Because that is what the Oslo freaks did in their megalomaniac well-meaningness: they hijacked the Nobel founded peace prize and instrumentalized it for causes that Nobel did not wish to engage on. Many Nobel peace prize wionners, are no real winners, but impostors of a kind. And many get the prize not for what they have acieved, but what a small Oslo circle thinks they should try to achieve in the future. In the end, it often is about this circle's intention, not so much about that prize winner's accomplishments. And by raising that expectation, you gain power and control over the winner's decision: he has to justify the vote made by the committee. If I were mean, i would say that is kind of a blackmailing, or pressing.

I have learned to despise the Nobel peace prize very much. Would not like to end up on that list, it would be an offence and a disgrace when reading some of the names.

BTW, Obama, is no black. He is a mixed-blood. And he has no achievement that he accomplished himself for ending racism in the US. Neither did he achieve it, nor is racism abolished. To say he is black (father from Kenya) makes as much sense as to say he is white (mother was).

Oh, being feared allows you to achieve more good stuff than just meaning it well but being weak. I prefer being feared to depending on the good will of others any time. You must not act like a monster, if you do not want to. But to make others believe you are, can be extremely helpful. And to know that you can be, if you want, is reassuring.

As just reading some news and i needed to vent:

We're about to hit our debt ceiling again in a month and a half, we're already 16 trillion in debt, and these asshats in washington are probably going to send us into another war. I'm starting to wonder if the petrodollar conspiracy theories have validity to them.
