Obama’s Nobel feat
Regarding the editorial “Obama in Oslo” (Dec. 12): President Obama was right in stating that his accomplishments were slight compared to other giants of history who deservedly won the Nobel Prize for peace. However, in the midst of political, economic and social injustices, Mr. Obama’s story has symbolized the relentless struggle against enormous odds; the fight against racism, which for so long gripped America. Millions across the globe now believe in their ability to change themselves and their nations for the better. Isn’t this alone a Nobel feat?
