Yo, President Obama...

I'm really happy for you, and I'm gonna let you finish, but Auguste Marie François Beernaert and Paul-Henri-Benjamin d'Estournelles de Constant's Nobel Peace Prizes were the Peacefullest Peace Prizes of all time...

(I think this is my way of saying that I really like Pres. Obama and think he's doing a pretty good job as president so far, all things considered. I just don't know what he's done that's NPP-worthy yet. Maybe at the end of his term/terms?)

(NB: Monsieurs Beerneart and d'Estournelles de Constant both won the NPP in 1909. I picked them somewhat randomly, but mostly because they have long names, which made the shtick a little funner.)
