This will shock you, Obama is the best one to win the award.
The award is given to someone who is Anti-capitalist (gore, UN global climate), Anti-semite (carter), and pro-globalization(*liberal globalization, ala the UN which has won like 6 of them).
Further, the award is in part designed to go for the person who has done the most to reduce standing armies. Which means clinton got completely gipped.
The problem ultimately is with the so-called presitge of the award. It is NOT given to great humanitarians or else Mother Teresa would have multiple!
