Last week, Obama went to Denmark, ostensibly to pitch Chicago to "the world". Instead, he pitched himself, and the world did not choose Chicago.

This week, "the world" again chose Obama himself.

Obama hasn't helped our standing in the world. He's helped his own standing in the world.

My post during his live presser this moring:

He’s humbled.

[How can one be humbled by getting an award one actually has to apply for?]

His staffer(s) may have formalized the applications, but, if so, they did it with his consent.

COULD IT HAVE BEEN BILL AYERS WHO NOMINATED OBAMA?

Yes, but there are a few other suspects like Al Gore and Jimmah Carter to add to the list. I'd include Yasser Arafat but he's no longer with us.
