The prize was awarded to former International Criminal Court judge Navi Pillay on Friday. Hours after the announcement, Donald Trump told a rally he had "never heard" of the "mystery person".


To be fair I’ve never heard of this person

"Almost nothing to do with Norway"?

You are asking if Trump can be "this thick"????

Look in the mirror.

The Nobel Prize Committee is chosen by the Norwegian Parliament and is composed of Norwegians.

I would say that is a far cry from "nothing to do with Norway."

Is this what passes for English/grammar at Northwestern? Here, let me help you out:

“Eurocrat does not appear to understand the concept of wordiness.”

He actually thinks that he deserves this


He has exceeded any of the criteria that others have won on for a couple of times over. The award is actually quite irrelevant at this point. I admit openly that I am perplexed by Trump’s need to pursue an award that has no real value anymore.

Nobel Prize has almost nothing do with Norway

Dude, just stop posting. You just make up BS

* The Nobel Peace Prize is the only Nobel prize not to be given out by Sweden, Nobels home country

* Nobel personally selected Norway due to their Parliaments historic involvement in efforts to resolve conflicts through mediation and arbitration. It was so stipulated in Nobels will

* A five-member committee is appointed by the Parliament of Norway. The prize award was originally held at Parliament, but is now held at Oslo City Hall since 1990. Advisers to the Nobel institute, which consists of the institute's Director and Research Director, and a small number of Norwegian academics with expertise in subject areas relating to the prize make up the committee

* The working language of the Norwegian Nobel Committee requires all submissions are to be in Norwegian

* The Chairman of the Norwegian Nobel Committee presents the Nobel Peace Prize in the presence of the King of Norway and the Norwegian royal family on 10 December each year (the anniversary of Nobel's death).

* Criticism of the award found that the Norwegian Nobel Committee ought to recruit members from professional and international backgrounds, rather than retired members of parliament; In a recent article, Norwegian historian Øivind Stenersen argues that Norway has selfishly used the prize as an instrument for nation-building and furthering Norway's foreign policy and economic interests.


You cant get any more Norwegian, than the Nobel Peace Prize

So it’s based in Norway and somehow it doesn’t add to Norway’s stature ? Would Norway not be embarrassed if a huge scandal within their country?

The Learing center in US is an embarrassment but it is also not considered a prestigious institution.

He is obsessed with it because Former President Obama won it, that is the obsession in a nutshell, Obama has a trophy and he doesn't, that's called ODS (Obama Derangement Syndrome)

Sure, except for the fact that every single member ever selected to the committee since 1897 has been a Norwegian citizen.
