"According to [Alfred] Nobel's will, the Peace Prize shall be awarded to the person who in the preceding year "shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses".

The mere fact of awarding the Nobel to Obama tells me these guys are a bit left-leaning. I think this will be a defining moment for Trump - and the world. It's a litmus test on the mental, social and moral state of the world in general. At some level, especially in the Court of Public Opinion, it will question the motives of Robert Mueller if Trump wins. Of course, when you scrutinize the list of past winners, it does give you cause for pause. Al Gore? Past Winners

Of course he won't. And the Nobel Prize will lose any remaining credibility.

He should refuse it or donate the prize money to the NRA.

I don't believe there is any question that he would donate the money.

No.

The Nobel Committee is the epitome of European Liberal snobbery. They're Swedish for heaven's sake.

We need a better recognition of true achievements. Nobel is a political award.

I want to go on record with my forecast that Trump will absolutely not be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. IMHO, Kim Jong Un has a better chance.

If NK denuclearization is the focus of the award, then it will be South Korea's leader to get it. Trump will not be awarded anything because he is the target for destruction by the Left, and the Nobel Prize system is controlled by Leftists.

In no particular order: Trump, Xi, Moon & Kim Jong could all share it to be honest, I believe there's a happy medium to be had here. No matter which started the conversation or who followed through it literally took all four to make peace.

I just find that the NPP had tarnished itself with awarding our last president on his promise to create world peace before any actions went into play. Shortly followed by not adding other countries to our worldly military conflicts. Actions >> words of peace.

I guarantee you they will give the prize to Xi for the denuclearization just to spite Trump.

Btw what did Soetoro do to win the award? Hadn’t he only been in office a few months?

Trump is going to grab the Nobel Peace Prize medal by the case.
