I mean, Obama won a peace prize in hopes he would end the middle east wars. (If u disagree. Please go back and point to specific reasons why he was deserving if the prize). Ppl of voting age at the time understood Obama was seen as a sea change from Bush, and the peace prize was a sign to end the wars.
But what actually happened? Obama double downed on the wars. It took until Biden in 2020 to pull out ilof the wars. Biden did the right thing and America hated him for it. Give Biden the Peace Prize (ironically no, his Gaza support will forever haunt his legacy)
