    What the World thinks.

    I believe the World was relieved by Obama's election as a sign that America was not going to continue down the road we were on. The rest of the World is much more aware of what happened to the World from our actions during the last 8 years and see Obama's victory as a boon for World peace. So the prize may be for taking on the neo-cons and winning the election. To them that in itself is worthy of the award.
