Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: yes

You're still giving specious examples here, man. Even the historic "messiah" would not qualify for a Nobel Peace Prize given your criteria of enacting or perfecting a process for enacting peace. That's because (1) there is no "perfect" peace process, and therefore (2) that's not what the Nobel is given for, and ergo (3) the award wasn't given for what Obama had done with the first 11 days of his office. It was given in recognition of the election of an American leader commited to withdrawal from West Asia, to unilateral nuclear disarmament, and to international cooperation. That doesn't make him a "messiah," just a competent president. And since the U.S. hasn't had anybody competent in the big chair for the last several years, yeah, it actually is globally significant that one of the world's major superpowers is no longer under the direction of a coke-addled egomaniacal warmonger. ;)

commited to withdrawal from West Asia, to unilateral nuclear disarmament, and to international cooperation???Maybe they should have waited to see if he meant it or if he's just another politician talking out his ass because he knows his mouth knows better ;)

Why can't everyone in the world just be like you?it'd be a better place.Thanks for the support :D
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: No

This is really just an extension to a dispute I had with another argument: If I accept your description that the Nobel Peace Prize is an international award for "efforts" to bring about peace, then what demonstrable effect has any of President Obama efforts to bring about peace had in the world? If the sum of his efforts is to inspire "large groups of people to dedicate their continued efforts to peace" then where are these "large groups people"? Does it matter which people are dedicating themselves? Because if the issue is whether or not President Obama's efforts has renewed, or inspired a dedication to peace, (putting aside the criteria of "large groups") then I think we can agree that getting large groups of Americans and/or Europeans to dedicate themselves to peace is not particularly meritorious for two reasons. The first is that the efforts, and dedication of these groups have little to do with President Obam. Peace groups in America and Europe have been around for decades (actually President Obama has a negative effect on these groups because they are more galvanized when they feel the government is opposed to their efforts), and will be active long after President Obama. The second reason is that these individuals, no matter how dedicated, have little impact on world peace. Peace efforts need to be pinpointed and perhaps even begun in those areas that are in conflict or turmoil. Americans holding rallies and singing Kumbaya does little for say...the plight of women in Afghanistan. So it would seem the "large groups of people" would need to be either newly inspired or previously disposed peace groups resurging in areas that are conflict-ridden. Without expecting President Obama's efforts to be fully realized, there should be some way of judging the effect of his efforts thus far (and again putting aside the issue of whether it is measured from the date of his nomination or the date of the award). So taking a gander at the international scene it should be possible to see some movement away from violence and towards peace. There should be at least some groups speaking loud and large in the most conflict-ridden regions of the world.Isn't the opposite true? Genocide continues unabatted in several regions. Taliban violence has erupted in Afghanistan. Voilence is now erupting in Pakistan, and perhaps most sadly the President of the United State--the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize--sat quietly for days as the Iranian government squelched any dissent from protesting Iranian citizens over what most of the international community agrees was a corrupt election. In the one moment that could have led some credence to the awarding of the prize to President Obama; he failed.This is not a man who deserves a Nobel Peace Prize. That doesn't mean he is a terrible president, or a bad human being (most of us don't win a Nobel Peace Prize). But the prize is supposed to be reserved for extraordinary efforts, and/or accomplishments. This president has demonstrated neither.

Even Barrack Obama said "I don't desere this award". You are arguing against the president?
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: yes

He is a very modest man, if i won the Nobel Prize i'd probably be pretty modest also.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: yes

He didn't deserve it, he said he didn't deserve it, and you don't deserve it either, so I'd expect you to tell the truth and say you don't deserve it as well.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: yes

Anyone would say they don't deserve it moron! Well in my personal opinion he did deserve it. Anyway it isn't up to you, and im glad :)
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: No

Obviously he doesn't deserve it if he doesn't think he deserved it. He basically got the peace prize for not being George Bush -- Which is retarded.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?

well like i said i dont agree with you and i am glad you dont decide.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?

It wasn't because Obama deserve the award, it was Who can we pretend to give the prize winnings to? They don't have any money to be giving away at this time, you know?

What are you even talking about?? This statement makes no sense:"They don't have any money to be giving away at this time, you know?"

OF COURSE HE DOES!.......................................................
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: yes

y wouldn't he deserve it. even thou i am just a child i know that he is just like the other people who won it but he is just the president. i am so tired of these haters hating to Obama because he is black. i hope yal no that know the he is also white. but it is ok but he dose deserve it.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: yes

yes he deserves it why wouldn't he why cant everyone support him just for being the first Black presided that has made it. Many people says he does'nt deserve well think twice and remember it was very tuff for him because many people don't want to see an African American president. But you cant give up on him now he deserves it and at the end you will really see why. So have faith in him and believe in him come on he's new at this don't be so hard on him just watch all the work he's going to do then you will see that he Will earn every award that is giving to him. All he need is for everyones support.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: Yes

President Obama is a great man and he did deserve the Nobel Peace Prize.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: No

Hell mo! Even Obama said so himself. NOTE: The dead line for nominating someone for this year's Nobel Peace Price was February 1. Obama was in office in January 20. That means that he was in office 11 days before he was nominated. Come on! Weren't we debating a few days ago what has he done so far? And today he gets the Nobel Peace Price. Please! My eye doctor says that I have to stop visiting this site. He says that all this eye rolling is wearing out my eye balls ;)
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: No

I liked the last comment. So I gave you a point. Lol.You're right though.. this is politics brought into something that as far as I know has kept its hands clean from it.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: yes

What about the case that they nominated him to watch him and if he deserved it they would award him? No one thinks of that situation. He deserved the award more than anyone else in the world.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: No

OK, so now he's been in office for several months. So..., what has he accomplished towards peace?
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: Not yet

He has drastically improved relations with Russia, and he's working hard to improve relations with Iran through direct talks. He is in the process of closing down the Gitmo torture prison, and he has ended torture as an official policy of the USA. We are also in the process of starting to withdraw the vast majority of our troops from Iraq, which was a huge debacle, and that effort will be ramping up next year.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: No

OK, so he hasn't really finished doing anything yet, right? He has just started the process.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: Not yet

He's already done some things that I think are significant, and I even listed them on here. I fully admit that Obama hasn't yet fully earned the Noble Peace Prize, and even Obama agrees with me. :)
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: No

Great! So we are all in agreement. He hasn't earned the Noble Peace Prize. Maybe they should take it back and award it once he does earn it ;)
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: No

I do think he's a good diplomat, but in order for him to really deserve this prize, I'm pretty sure he has to actually ACHIEVE peace first. x) I see why it was a good move for putting political pressure on him to continue peace efforts, but did he deserve this honor? Not really. I don't mean that as insulting, it's just that he hasn't actually achieved the goal of peace in any major way.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: yes

in order for him to really deserve this prize, I'm pretty sure he has to actually ACHIEVE peace first. Actually, no. Madden points out how often the award is given in recognition of effort rather than accomplishment. Aung San Suu Kyi has not toppled the Burmese military junta; she got the prize for her efforts. Desmond Tutu didn't end apartheid, which was still going strong when he got the prize; he got it for efforts. Carter didn't create a lasting peace in the Middle East; he got the prize for efforts. And so forth.:)
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: yes

Okay, that's true. I just don't know that his efforts are significant enough. I'm sure he WILL make significant efforts for peace; and I really like Obama foreign affairs-wise. But I think the prize shouldn't have been given prematurely.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: No

The prizes are awarded by different associations. The Nobel Prize in Physics, Nobel Prize in Chemistry, and Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences are awarded by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences; the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine by the Nobel Assembly at (the) Karolinska Institutet; and the Nobel Prize in Literature by the Swedish Academy.

Side: Not yet

have all of the former Nobel Peace Prize recipients "achieved peace"?? Nope.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: No

Very true, but I'm still not sure he did enough to warrant a Nobel Peace Prize. Although he did close Guantanamo, and that was significant. I don't know. I just feel like he hasn't done enough yet. This, of course, is through no fault of his own; he hasn't had time to do enough yet...Maybe it comes down to knowing who the other nominees were, what they accomplished, etc.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: Not yet

Well, even on the Gitmo issue, that torture prison isn't totally closed YET. So, really, I think that backs up my argument that Obama is merely moving in a different & more constructive direction that the Nobel people wanted to acknowledge. Obama's work is definitely a work in progress. :)
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: yes

Mmmmm okay. I suppose that is true. He is moving America in a good direction, as far as foreign affairs go. And he is very much trying to be a diplomat. So I guess the award wasn't totally unearned. It just kind of throws one off, though, when someone who hasn't been president for very long gets such an award. I still say whether or not he deserved it remains to be seen; if he continues in a direction of peace, then yes, he deserved the award.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: No

I think that president's should have to do more than just get elected to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: No

The members of the Norwegian Nobel Committee that were to award the Peace Prize were appointed shortly after the will was approved. The other prize-awarding organisations followed; the Karolinska Institutet on June 7, the Swedish Academy on June 9, and the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences on June 11.

Let me ask this , what did Obama do that was so wonderful for this country? He was to busy playing golf rather than to decide to send or bring our troops to or from the war? I can't explain this to you liberal Democrates cause 99 of 100 says you won't listen watch a show called ''Glenn Beck'' 5:00 everyday on fox and open your ears and not your mouth!!!

"He was to busy playing golf rather than to decide to send or bring our troops to or from the war?"We have a President that CAN do more than one thing at once yanno...for a change anyways. Beck is a loon of the first order IMHO.

If you were playing golf would you want to worry about everything? and your just a normal person,he is the president,you didn't catch bush playing golf while 9/11 was happening,he did everything he could to prevent having a major terrorist attack again,did we? NO If that ain't the truth GET THE HELL OUT OF AMERICA,the troops are fighting for YOU and obama and the rest of the U.S.A and obama can't give them a quick simple straight answer ,instead he will play his 18 holes ? sounds to me like our president don't give a crap about our troops! If he can do more than one thing at once then why don't he? Look at your facts before you argue!Or find some!

"you didn't catch bush playing golf while 9/11 was happening"No, he was too busy reading a book about goats AFTER his aide said to him: "America is under attack.""he did everything he could to prevent having a major terrorist attack again,did we?"Hmmmm, including infringing on our rights as American citizens AND taking the unprecedented good will towards the USA after 9/11 & shredding it based on torture use & unnecessary wars abroad."If that ain't the truth GET THE HELL OUT OF AMERICA"No thanks...the USA isn't "love it or leave it". I feel VERY lucky & privileged to have been born in the USA BTW."obama can't give them a quick simple straight answer ,instead he will play his 18 holes ? sounds to me like our president don't give a crap about our troops"Please, GWB gave up golf "for the troops", but yet he let them down by sending them on fool hardly missions that were based on a pack of lies, period. That doesn't sound like he gave a damn about our brave troops to me!"If he can do more than one thing at once then why don't he?"Watch & learn Right-winger."Look at your facts before you argue!Or find some!"You first!

No, he was too busy reading a book about goats AFTER his aide said to him: "America is under attack." sounds like something you made up because your venting because you didn't like bush.I agree with some of your idea's on both sides but i think your both venting. After awhile people began to love there government and not there country. if the government does not protect the rights of the people as we see fit, we have the right to change the government.So for both of you I would stop loving the government and love your country more.

Of course he didn't deserve it. That's why I no longer believe that majority of Nobel Prize winners really deserve it, plus it decreases the value and hard work that older prize winners had to do to gain such a honorable award.Nikola Tesla (not Thomas Edison) made more contributions to the development of electric power and never won a Nobel Prize eventhough it is more than obvious that he deserved it.

Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win? No, when Hitler came to power, the German people believed that he would change everything, but did the world give him a Nobel Peace Prize? No. If somebody say's i was comparing Obama to Hitler you should rethink. I'm a American and i support my president no matter who he is even if i don't like him.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: No

Simply look at the facts. He was nominated after 11 days. He didn't even have a chance to attempt to make world peace. He was probably still unpacking all his stuff. If he had actually had a chance to try, he may have deserved it. But 11 days? Thats just too soon.

deserves peace prize? thats why we are billions of dollars in debt, that he wants to form a socialist gov, that he wants to start an other war in the middle east before we have fixed or finished the one were already in, well the peace prize is joke i hope you all know. Afrat a PLO terrorist and conspirator won it, so any one can get it. obama cause hes black, and maybe you for some other bogus reason.

Of course not; he has done nothing to actually create peace.He is nothing but a good speaker. If you really want to give someone a nobel peace prize for bringing hope and change to their people, try Che, Hitler, Stalin or Mussolini. Those guys were very inspirational.

Obama hasn't done anything let alone bring peace anywhere..oh yeah he did he's spent more money than all the past presidents combined but correct me if i'm wrong they don't give a prize for that do they?

Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: No

Has much as I think Bush was not a true conservative and I hated his spending which is even against the definition of what a true conservative is. The new administrations proposed budget makes Bush's spending look like peanuts when we are now talking about Obama going into the 10 trillion over the next ten years that's why everybody is worried about inflation kicking in. That is real money that has to be paid back. Right now there is no control over spending at all on both sides and it is going to kill us if it is not handled.
Debate: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize... Do you think he deserved to win?
Side: Not yet

The issue with the federal budget is not only a spending issue, and I would argue that it's not even mostly a spending issue, since the last budget busting can be directly tied to the aftermath of the horrendous Bush Tax Cuts, which went mostly to the wealthy & did nothing for real job growth. The USA has BOTH a spending AND a revenue problem. Those that think that we can solve our budgetary problems with only reductions in spending are foolhardy IMO.
