I have always been an Obama supporter and although I think the prize was a bit premature I did feel happy for him and for the recognition of his intentions. However, other opinions are around and I think we should be open minded enough to read and discuss them. The articles I clip don't necessarily reflect my own point of view and not having been nominated for the Nobel Prize I have no reason whatsoever to be jealous!
