Nobel's former secretary, Geir Lundestad, told the media that he thought giving Obama the award would spur him to great accomplishments. Instead, Obama did nothing of note over the next eight years.
Many on the Left thought Obama was destined for great things.
Many on the Left were sadly disappointed.
I questioned 'who is this guy and who is funding him' when he made his announcement to run for the presidency in 2007. He basically had zero accomplishment then -- got chosen for the Senate and ran for the presidency 2 years later.

Just cry in your beer. Don’t even think about giving our President one. I for one would discourage him from taking that piece of junk!! It’s tainted.

Maybe we should give all sports and entertainment trophies to people who havent started their careers yet, in great hopes. Such a sound idea for great achievement in the future.

Trump should ban this @$$hole from the US entirely. Stupidity and pathetic virtue-signaling should have consequences.
Partner, the America Hating Imposter Obama presidency should be revoked since he is a big time "Imposter" on the American populace.
The look on Dick Chaney's face before the Obama inauguration should tell us all that the America Hating Obama is a big time Imposter, period.

Wasnt 2009 the same year Obama won the Heisman as well as an Oscar?
To: Jyotishi
"Even many of Obama's supporters believed that the prize was a mistake," he says.Well, you're wrong there, Buckwheat. There isn't a supporter of Bathhouse Barry who thinks that's the case. They believe he's the most amazing and special person ever to draw breath. If anything, they think that Obama would have won more had it not been for the racism of the Nobel Committee which is now obvious for all to see from Lundestad's book.

“Regrets, I have a few.
But then again, too few to mention.”
Geir Lundestad, a day late and a dollar short.
You, sir, are in dire need of having your mental capabilities checked and realigned.

I like that idea.
I think I’ll ask the UFC to give me a championship belt for being the best MMA fighter, even though I’ve never had so much as an amateur bout and I’m 52 years old. But hey, a few Scandinavians think I’ve got potential to do great things.

How dumb do you have to be, not to be able to figure that out before the blessed event?
This was a real bench mark on the decline of human civilization.
Don’t laugh, nearly half our populace seems afflicted by the same degenerative infestation.

got the benefit of the ‘we love closet commie’ for 10 years after politicizing the Nobel prize
Its understood by many to be worthless now when dimmbulbs like this one gave it to obama for not actually doing anything.
Its kinda affirmative action on the world stage
