President Obama received the Nobel Peace Prize last week and there are some who are pissed! Wow, this black man can't win for losing! It is my belief that some of the discourse is because he is black! I said some, please let me explain. If we go back into history when Dr. King won the prize probally the same veribage or even worst! Back then the N word was in common use.
Critics say he has not been in office long enough and he has not achieve anything. Well I have been going to the gym faithfully and I have not lost any weight but I am giving all my effort and I am making progress. Should all of that be in vain?
The committee likes President Obama's speeches. OK now I think this is interesting. They like his talk about peace. Words are heavy and they can change things! President Obama talks a good game and I feel that he can bag it up! I am looking at this as the things yet to come!
The Israelites had faith in a God they never seen and that God delivered them from slavery.
The Nobel Committee has faith in a man that has words and compassion of peace. Who else out their on his level is standing up for theirs??? ( I mean humanity)
I have no doubt in my mind that President Obama can not deliver, so let's keep our eyes on the prize!!!
Peace, Brenda ( and I really do mean PEACE)

You have no doubt he CAN deliver. And I agree that, though I share his surprise and his own feelings about the prize, it is something like a portent: it suggests that the world is looking to him to take the lead in peacemaking efforts, and believes he can do it!
