The CNN guy is just about flabberghasted. He says the prize never went to a sitting president or politician especially an American.

He said "you could hear the gasps at the anouncement". Then they played the video and you could not hear any reaction.

President Theodore Roosevelt (1906) and President Woodrow Wilson (1919) both received the Nobel Peace Prize while a sitting president.
