Forums → WEPR → 2013: Man Truly Deserving of Nobel Peace Prize is Finally Nominated

Vladimir Putin, a god amongst men, the savior of all that is beautiful, and now the Nobelist of Nobel Peace Prize winners (a title he now already holds, for the award shall obviously be given to him).

You're joking, right?

I don't know what you're talking about, Putin definitely deserves recognition for his work in being awesome

Take the Nobel Peace Prize away from all those politicians (yes, also from Obama) and give it to the people actually working for peace in the background. That'll make it a little more believable.

I dont understand. Putin. Is. a. very. peacefull. man. .

(These are diffrunte links. Watch them all).

after learning obama actually won it. i thought of corruption among the nobel prize members (whoever may choose them i dunno).
now i'm sure that they are corrupted and the nobel prize is either gonna lose it's high standing all together or is going to have some black pages in it's history.

Non-official, a russian advocacy group nominated him

But he has no chance cuz this group send in the nominee too late, cuz the official submit-limit was on Sep. 16.

Why would it be corruption? He actually deserve it for just for putting up with
corrupted Republicans who tried everything to sabotage him just because they don't like him.

You have to admit the guy's patient, dedicated and actually trying to do something.

What did the Conservatives ever done for the people?

Well, the Conservatives have produced several great people who did things for the people shown here , so that's a start.

That isn't a reason to give out a Nobel prize and that isn't the reason why he was given it. He received the Nobel Peace prize for "extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples" The prize is usually given to those who have made achievements in peace rather than just attempts as was done by Obama. I think he really failed to follow through with the reasons he received it

There are some impressive names among the list of the dead ones on there. Though given who is alive on the prominent figures list, not really helping the argument.

What did the Conservatives ever done for the people?

Which it seems to me he was asking for the general history of what they have done for the people, not what they have done in modern times. So that seems the dead ones deeds work for his question as well.

Obama didn't deserve that Nobel prize, the people who deserve it are the people who do great things in the background.

Anyone remember the ANTI HOMOSEXUAL LAWS passed through the Russian government?
All I have to say about Putin is

I would just like to clarify that NOBEL PRIZES and NOBEL PEACE PRIZES are two completely different things. Obama did not receive a NOBEL PRIZE. People are using the terms interchangeably and it is erroneous to do so. Thanks for reading!

How does that benefit people now?
