I strongly believe that Mr. Obama the President of the USA, is a different man from Mr. G.W. Bush.
The entire world has sensed this already, and many small and big countries have been encouraged from his attitude at the White House, in beginning a new era for diplomacy.
Still, this is not enough. The war in Iraq and Afganistan is there. Troups are still there, no due dates for withdrawing soldiers, more than that Mr. Obama did not exclude (legitim) a Military action against Iran if they keep working on nuclear...
Almost nothing has been done about the Global Warming.
The UNITED STATES OF AMERICA are still the same country of a year ago; nothing has changed, policies in Wall Street are the same; EDUCATION is more expensive today than last here( i paid 8% more, at UM 15%), so this is not and encouragement for young people.
Jobs have not been created,( i don't blame the President, this is a cause of the economic cycle); health care reform: not yet achieved. Olympic games :a complete failure. Middle East process of peace: at the same point from 100 yrs now. Cuba's matter: just an opening to negotiations; never started.
Now: Nobel Prize.
Nobel Prize is a price that people in Economy, Fisic, Medicin, Research.. gain after important achivements and after spending an entire life working for only one porpouse.
I really apologize, but i firmly not share this achivement from Mr. Obama and i reject event to congratulate him. This man doesn't need any encouragements, he needs to have the goods to be where he is, and he has them. So insted of rewarding him with not yet deserved prizes, the world should focus on make new policies.
Many men have promised the moon to their people, he might be just one of them. And in the future he will not loose his Noble Prize Title if he does not achive anything. So let's not allow to politic to destroy the fame of this Prize.
Mr. Obama is still not: Nelson Mandel; Yasser Arafat, Mother Teresa, Martin Luther King Jr, Theodore Roosevelt...
Because Mr. Obama is a very, very smart guys, I believe that even him feels a little shame of having his name close to these guys!!
