It may have been a repudiation of the past eight years in America's history, or it may have been a true illustration of the Norwegian Nobel Committee's true opinion of the President: either way, it seems that a sitting President has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for only the third time in our history.
President Teddy Roosevelt, the bull moose himself, won a Nobel Peace Prize in 1906, and President Woodrow Wilson won the second in 1919. For the third Nobel Peace Prize ever given to a President, Former President Jimmy Carter was awarded the prize in 2002, making President Obama only the fourth president to ever receive the honor.
From Operation: Democracy to the White House, we offer our congratulations!
