Nobel Peace Prize

[edit]

In 2000 Denis Halliday was jointly nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize with Kathy Kelly of Voices in the Wilderness, the campaign against sanctions on Iraq.

  • Being nominated for the Peace Prize is an honor, but it is not official and not necessarily prestigious. Any national legislator or about a third of the university professors in the world can make a nomination, and there have been as many as 160 some years. Rumored nominees have included a Brazilian psychic (nominated twice) and an unscrupulous businessmen from Ohio. Nominators are requested to keep their nominations secret, so it's only those wishing publicity who make announcements. In most instances the reports of prize nominations seem to just be unattributed rumors. Altogether, I see no reason to keep it as is. I propose changing it to "was recognized". No offense to the subject, this is a general Nobel Peace Prize "nominees" issue. -Willmcw July 7, 2005 08:12 (UTC)
Adolf Hitler anyone? Someone emphasized he was a critic of the Versailles-Treaty, and that would earn him the Nobel Prize.....--Stat-ist-ikk (talk) 11:59, 28 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
