So they gave the Nobel Peace Prize to Obama... I think that's a measure of two things:
First, it's a measure of the impact of the US in the world. This country is so strong, that anything that happens here impacts people in all other nations in the world.

I also think the Europeans are still in the honeymoon phase with Barack Obama.
