Obamas plans for peace and what they got him

Recently, last Friday to be exact President Barack Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace prize. It is reported that he was awarded this great award due to his radical plans for peace and goals for a better America.

Obama is reported to feel very humble about the whole victory stating that he does not deserve to be associated with all the other Nobel peace prize winners that there has been. Not only does the president get the honor and distinction of winning he also gets a 1.4 million dollar award.

Awarding Obama the prize not only shows the love and trust Americans have for him, but also the amount of faith people have in his plan. People actually trust in Obama and not only hope that his peace plan will work but believe that it will.

Other important people believe that Obama hasn't really done anything yet, and thus doesn't deserve the award. They ask what has he done? While Obama has many plans for peace many haven't even began to be carried out.He plans on reducing the world stock of nuclear arms, easing American conflicts with Muslim nations and strengthening the U.S. role in combating climate change. Some critics believe that it was just people getting too carried away with hope, or Obama fans with rose colored glasses. One critic was so harsh as to say it was Obama's "star power" that got him this honor.

As for this writer, I think that good intentions and plans are good enough for me. While planning for peace is certainly not as good as actually achieving peace, it's a lot more than presidents and other politicians have done in the past. The effort that he is putting in is worth the award, maybe if everyone won small awards for big plans the world would be better.
