Comment: Plain and simple NO WAY!!! Why should he? What has he done? Nothing really. He reminds me of a used car salesman. "I'll charm you with my smile" Just because of his race does not mean he should have everything handed to him on a silver platter. from Sykesville by Betina
Comment: He doesn't even think that he deserves it.
Comment: Absolutely NOT!!! Are they going to make him Pope soon too? This is just getting laughable. I'm embarrassed for him. from Baltimore by Jerome
Comment: No, now I'm officially embarrassed to be a US citizen. A Nazis US president receiving the Nobel Peace prize. Every nation is laughing at us even more. from Timonium by Jim
Comment: I want world peace too and to have all people sing "I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing". Where's my peace prize? from Pasadena by Tony
Comment: Who could possibly say yes and keep a straight face? other than the recipient of course from Baltimore by Buddy
Comment: he didn't do nothing to get it from Dallastown, PA by Donald
Comment: I think he's done some good things but the Nobel Peace Prize? That's a bit of a stretch. from Baltimore by Kenneth
Comment: Com'on now, he was only in office for 2 weeks, just how much could he have done. 135 days as a Senator means zilch. He admits he hasn't done enough to deserve it. from Baltimore by Rene
Comment: I think Alfred Nobel is rolling over in
his grave after some of the people that
committee has given the Peace Prize
to! I think Obama has done more
harm than good for our great country
and I don't believe he really deserved
it. But, looking at past recipients,
nothing surprises me with the Nobel
Peace Prize Committee! from Port Deposit by Shannon
Comment: His statement is accurate. The goals he has set because at the present nothing has been accomplished. His intentions are good. Let us see what will be accomplished. from Columbia by Jack
Comment: He has done nothing even to be nominated for this great award! We are still in two wars in the middle east and Iran is producing a nuke to use on Israel. from Belcamp by August
Comment: He has done nothing to earn it from Baltimore by Ed
Comment: I believe someone should earn the Nobel Peace Prize based on their accomplishments not on their goals. from Fallston, Maryland by Chad
Comment: I feel that if the cabinet that knows the qualifications for the prize feels that he does, then he should be awarded the prize. I believe that the only reason anyone would question this is because it was awarded to an African American President. If Bush, Carter, Reagan or even Nixon did the same thing has Obama and received the prize, there would be no question. from Baltimore by Chrystal
Comment: I feel like action speaks louder than words and we need to see and know black and white what has he done NOT planned/visioned to get certain global issues resolved from Md by Leo
Comment: it's a little early,he really needs to prove himself more from reisterstown,md by nat
Comment: Most definately as he is one in a million president. he sure deserve it from joppa/md by yetunde
Comment: He has changed the direction of U.S. policy from war mongering to peace seeking. A A laudable effort deserving of the Peace Prize. Totally unlike George Bush and Dick Chaney, and their war-for-profit program. from Baltimore by Steve
Comment: What were the Nobel prize officials thinking? Now someone can get the coveted Nobel Peace prize for "wishful thinking"?
from delta, pa by gloria
Comment: less than 2 weeks in office and he is nominated for a "peace prize" ? I would really like to see what real accomplishments the hundreds of nominees who were left behind achieved. Sounds like a wish list qualifies for nomination. from Annapolis by Frank
Comment: What a farce. A peace award for GOALS? Really? from Baltimore/MD by Cyndi
Comment: NO! NO! NO! What has he done? Nothing. This prize is for accomplishments of reducing standing armies, reducing nuclear threats and more . Mr. President has accomplished nothing. Besides this he was in office about 2 weeks before the closing date of his submission for this prize. With this award the Pulitzer Prize goes next to the carnival prize and is worth about 50 cents. Politics at it's finest. from Catonsville by Dan
Comment: Saying something and doing something are two different things. Though Obama's intentions may be good, they are just that. Someone who actually accomplished what they set out to do to make the world a better place should win. from Perry Hall, MD by Kerri
Comment: I garee with the Obama, "I do not feel I deserve it"
There must not be any Americans on the panel. from sykesville, MD by Ron
Comment: I do not think that he deserve the award because he has not accomplished any of the goals mentioned in his election speeches. Believing that he will make a change is not change. He should be awarded after he has accomplished the goals that he set forth. In my opinion by giving the award to President Obama at this time cheapens the meaning of the award. It is my understanding that the recipient also receives a monetary award of one million dollars. Since he agrees that he DOES NOT DESERVE the award is he going to give the million dollars back. Better still why not donate the proceeds to a charity to help some of us little folks who are out of work and struggling just live from day to day. That will surely make a change/difference. from Maryland by Katherine
Comment: he was in office for two weeks.he still hasnt done anything to deserve it.
Comment: Yes, he deserves it and he earned it. It's amazing that you people at FOX can't get past his color! That's right; your station exudes racial bias. Your station has had nothing but negative comments to say about this wonderful president.
During his campaign you were highly critical of everything that he said and did. You're now attempting to say that all of those who nominated him used poor judgment or put a negative political slant on the selection process.
President Obama has taken the office of President of these United States to a level that it will never experience again. He is an optimistic leader who is using his brilliance to run a country that is in a rut because of poor management and former leadership. He's not afraid to make the hard decisions. He also does not owe anyone any political favors. Therefore, he can do what he feels is best for the people. That means ALL of the people, including YOU!!!
Give it a rest!! You only bring people on your station who will speak negatively about this wonderfully intelligent, President of the United States that the majority of the people elected to run this country. You may as well face the facts, not only is he YOUR President, he is also the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize Winner! Feel it! Accept it! It's Done!!!!!!! from Gwynn Oak, Maryland by Sandra
Comment: Definitely not. For what??? from Owings Mills by Carol
Comment: They have got to be kidding. He was in office for only nine (9) days. They have made this award a joke. To date he has done nothing. from Glen Burnie, Md. by Joseph
Comment: The Nobel Peace Prize! Really?
He's getting ready to send 40,000 more troops to Afganastan. His lack of assertivness has Iran closer to using Nuclear weapons than ever before and N. Korea has resumed sabre rattling. A peace prize? Oh, really? That's ridiculous! from Kent Island, MD by Buddy
Comment: My fear now is that he'll try to earn it, instead of standing up to our adversaries, especially in Afghanistan and Iran. from Silver Spring, MD by Mike
Comment: He does not deserve it. What has he done, other than drive the US to the brink of total bankruptcy! from Westminster, MD by Michael
Comment: For once I can agree with President Obama. He has done nothing to deserve the Nobel Peace Prize. from Pikesville, MD by Chuck
Comment: The President has done nothing to be worthy of such an award. There are many other people more qualifed than he. from Nottingham, Md. by Charles
Comment: There is no doubt that the president has not done anything to earn the award. from Chestertown by Bill
Comment: If the PLO terrorist Yasser Arafat can win the "peace" prize, it is worth less than nothing. Arafat did nothing for peace either just like our President. from Glen Burnie by James
