Who would you put before Obama using the above definition?

Don't know. Tom posted some that may be worthy.
Point is, Obama doesn't qualify using the above criteria.
"Fraternity between nations?"
Is that like coalition of the willing? hehe.
"Abolition of standing armies?"
Nope.
"peace congresses?"
Nope.
Hey, I don't care that he got the award. But I bet Obama was ****ed.

Receiving a peace award.

Remember they also gave it to Arafat. Sometimes it's given to
