Smile Re: Obama wins Nobel Peace Prize

So all the stuff that Obama did in order to become President is what, chopped liver? Is it just not that big a deal that an African-American became president-elect almost a year ago now? That he had to overcome Hilary Clinton plus what the Republicans tossed his way, and didn't really get ugly in the campaign.

I wonder how well do some have a selective memory over the last year or just want to disregard some things. Have we already forgotten how ugly some things in the world were a year ago after the financial crisis in the US?

I'm just asking a few questions as someone that does see that Obama has achieved something.
