Love Obama, but ...

Posted by Nsenga Burton on Fri, Oct 9, 2009 at 11:00 AM

President Barack Obama wins the Nobel Peace Prize. For what exactly? He's only been in office for a mere 9 months and is talking about sending more troops to Afghanistan. Did I hit my head on something? Talk about a set-up? This is worse than being nominated for an Oscar for your first film or performance. Marlee Mattlin or John Singleton, anyone? Things can only go downhill when there is no opportunity for one to grow. Some will see this as a victory. I see it as a farce in a world where people assign greatness in areas where people have yet to even tap their true potential.
