Obama wins Nobel Peace Prize

The interesting thing is he won the award based on what he has strived for (nuclear non proliferation, multi-lateralism open dialog, etc). Those things are very difficult to measure.

Some would argue Obama has done quite a bit in change the atmosphere and perception of world politics compared to the last guy, but some would also say there have been no tangible results. It's an interesting argument.

I think EU president said that the prize is great, but it is also signal of responsibility. Obama needs to continue with his work and get results. I would agree with that.
