The Nobel Peace Prize is an award for achievements in Physics, Chemistry, Physiology, or Medicine and for Peace. The Nobel Peace Prize was created in 1901. The Winners are decided by the Nobel Foundation in Stockholm, Sweden ( "Nobel Prize Facts" ). I Picked Barack Obama for this project (“Nobel Peace Prize Winner-the full list”). Barack Obama was born on August 4, 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii, USA. He and his family lived in Chicago, Illinois. Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009 ("Barack H. Obama - Biographical"). Barack Obama is still alive. He did not have to share the award with anyone (“Nobel Peace Prize Winner-the full list”). Barack Obama field was organizing, arms control, and disarmament. His motivation was for “His efforts to strengthen intimation diplomacy cooperation between people” ("Barack H. Obama - Biographical"). Barack Obama is the 44 president of the United States of America. Barack Obama is the fourth president to the Nobel Peace Prize. Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize 10 months after he started living in the White House ( "The Nobel Peace Prize 2009 - Press Release" ). Barack Obama gave his speech on December 10, 2009 in the Oslo City Hall in Norway ( "Barack H. Obama - Nobel Lecture" ). President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden ran for the presidential seat in 2008 and ran against the Republican candidates John McCain and Sarah Palin. They won the presidency by using the motto “change we can believe in” and chanted during all of his rallies “yes we can.” Barack Obama should be an inspiration to people because since he became the 44 president of the United States of America he has been trying to make the United States of America a better place for every one. Even though he has made some bad decisions as a president he should still be an inspiration to people. He is an inspiration to me because he is our first black president and he has inspired me to be my very best in life.
