I guess it isn't so bad that President Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize. One year they gave it to Henry Kissinger. Here are some people who didn't win:

1. Mahatma Gandhi

2. Cesar Chavez

3. Corozon Aquino

4. Pope John Paul II

5. Eleanor Roosevelt

6. Vaclav Havel

7. Sari Nusseibeh

8. Liu Xia0bo

9. Ken Saro Wiwa

10. Thich Nhat Hanh (nominated but no award was given that year)

11. John Lennon
