OK No, I’m not like, on his buddy list or anything, but being politically aware and giving a damn about the future of my people caused me to do some volunteer work for Obama last year, it also meant that I was put on his e-mail list (or something)…and every week they send me information about the administration, what Obama is doing, how I can get involved etc… (DETAILS ON HOW TO SUBSCRIBE BELOW THE CUT)

Anyhu yesterday Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for 2009!!!! And it is a VERY BIG DEAL and  we should be celebrating right now! …..The Nobel committee said they awarded the prize to Obama for his “extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation.” Yes, mi amours he won it and then he sent out this e-mail, which I am positive OBAMA HIMSELF WROTE……

“Cherie –

This morning, Michelle and I awoke to some surprising and humbling news. At 6 a.m., we received word that I’d been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for 2009.

To be honest, I do not feel that I deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformative figures who’ve been honored by this prize — men and women who’ve inspired me and inspired the entire world through their courageous pursuit of peace.

But I also know that throughout history the Nobel Peace Prize has not just been used to honor specific achievement; it’s also been used as a means to give momentum to a set of causes.

That is why I’ve said that I will accept this award as a call to action, a call for all nations and all peoples to confront the common challenges of the 21st century. These challenges won’t all be met during my presidency, or even my lifetime. But I know these challenges can be met so long as it’s recognized that they will not be met by one person or one nation alone.

This award — and the call to action that comes with it — does not belong simply to me or my administration; it belongs to all people around the world who have fought for justice and for peace. And most of all, it belongs to you, the men and women of America, who have dared to hope and have worked so hard to make our world a little better.

So today we humbly recommit to the important work that we’ve begun together. I’m grateful that you’ve stood with me thus far, and I’m honored to continue our vital work in the years to come.

Thank you,

President Barack Obama”
