Obama is the first president to receive the nobel prize while still in office since 1919. The committee says Obama's creation of " a new climate in international politics" contributed to their decision. Obama is giving nations worldwide hope for the future. Although some people believe the award was given too soon, others see it as positive encouragement for Obama to act further on his efforts to prevent nuclear proliferation and continue to work for peace.
Although it may seem a bit premature, granting Obama the Nobel Peace Prize acknowledges the great shift that has occurred in international politics. He's managed to bring the U.N. and multilateral diplomacy into the spotlight. Obama has made an effort to support the Muslim community as well. I think the additional attention to Obama's policy and goals will only further his ambitions to accomplish what he has said he will. President Obama deserves time to act and prove himself now.
