ObamaMan


Obama got the Nobel Peace prize early this morning and I guess the BIG question is does he deserve this? Well to be honest, probably not. Even the president himself was shocked to hear he had the honour of receiving the reward. Many people are criticizing the Nobel Peace community for awarding Obama even when he has not made any major international legislatures. Theses people are not wrong for saying that but think about it, if the reward was not given to the President would anyone even be talking about this? Not many people would even know the prize was given out. Who knows who won the prize prior to Obama? Most people wouldn't have a clue. So although the President might not have done any break through peace agreements in the Middle-East or in North Korea, give him a break, hes a global icon. He has inspired countless amounts of people, and not only Americans. Think about it this way, after EIGHT years with Bush running America, whoever took over had to look like Mother Teressa.

The prize is more of a motivation for the President to push for his anti-nuclear world and peace between the Israel and Palestine. The President has only been in office for 9 months fixing the mess Bush created for the past 8 years. Give him another year and he'll show why he deserves to be in the Nobel Peace prize winner circle. So I would just like to say congratulations to the President and good luck in full-filling the high expectations you have on your shoulder.

The Praise for Obama

Now, of course every one knows Obama is supposed to be the new revolution America has been waiting for. Recently, B. Bernice Young Elementary School taught 18 of their young children a song that praises the President. They chanted the name "Barack Hussein Obama!" a numerous amount of times and the American media has been on this case ever since it hit Youtube last week (This is probably cause the Republicans own the media!!). Now many many Canadians are wondering whats wrong with this? They think there is nothing wrong with a song about Obama. Well fellow Canadians, unfortunately the American main stream media has a point.

As Canadians we love Obama but think of it like this. Imagine a school was singing and praising about George W. Bush, would we still think these songs are such good ideas? How about if you were a Jewish parent and you just learned your son's public school was singing songs about Jesus Christ and Santa Claus?

I am not saying this was such a bad thing where it needs all the attention it got, but I am simply stating schools should not do this because some families might not support President Obama (yes there are such families out there).

Don't think I don't love Obama, I'm Canadian too and we all love him up here!
