Barack Obama's election as president represents the fruit of why Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. won the award back in 1964. The world has chosen to recognize America for finding peace with itself? You can consider all other feats worthy of Nobel accolades over the past 12 months, but you can't top the election of America's first black President. Think of it this way: America won the 2009 Nobel Peace prize and our President has accepted on our behalf.
