But few in Kenya were critical: The East African nation has a special regard for Obama, the son of a Kenyan economist and an American anthropologist. (AP photo)


I *just* heard the news, and, at the urging of a friend, decided to create a small tribute to our amazing President Obama, who was just awarded the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize. Can it get any better than this folks? Ok, universal healthcare, education, and peace for every one around the world would ALSO be great.
