The Nobel Peace Prize. In case you didnt know who is eligible to nominate contenders: Each year, the Norwegian Nobel Committee [appointed by the Norwegian Parliament] specifically invites qualified people to submit nominations for the Nobel Peace Prize.The statutes of the Nobel Foundation specify categories of individuals who are eligible to make nominations for the Nobel Peace Prize. These nominators are: Members of national assemblies and governments and members of the Inter-Parliamentary Union Members of the Permanent Court of Arbitration and the International Court of Justice at the Hague Members of Institut de Droit International University professors of history, social sciences, philosophy, law, and theology, university presidents, and directors of peace research and international affairs institutes Former recipients, including board members of organizations that have previously received the prize Present and past members of the Norwegian Nobel Committee Former permanent advisers to the Norwegian Nobel Institute. (From wikipedia.) I think this explains why bastards like Blair, Obama and Kissinger manage to get nominated.
