why did obama receive the nobel peace prize?

https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/peace/2009/press-release/

They don't talk about anything he's specifically done. I can't find anything that he's done online so here I am asking anyone who's reading, "How did obama 'strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples'? "

He got the prize for what he might do, not for anything he did at the time he got it. Should we give the Boston Red Sox world series rings now, because it looks like they could be champs?
@GunSmoke9 Truth is, it was so a bunch of crackers could feel better about themselves. Now, instead of saying, " Hey man! I'm not racist! My second cousin married a black man!" , they can say, "Hey man! I'm not racist, me and my buddy's gave that one black president a Nobel Peace Prize! Remember?"

@puck61 Of course Obama being black had a lot to do with it. It should go to someone who actually did something, not what they might do, and never because of race or gender.
@GunSmoke9 Well, my point is a bit seasoned. I'd say, 'leave the poor guy alone and let him get on with his life', but he's still a Soros puppet and he's still campaigning, so he's fair game! Since Trump has been in office, the democrats have become less of a political party and more of a wacko fringe group like skin heads, or neo Nazi's, or 'flat earthers' , or 'The View', so I don't have many nice things to say about them

@puck61 I was hoping Obama would just go away, instead of pushing his bull campaigning for more of the loony left. The democrats have also gotten more dangerous.
@GunSmoke9 They are dangerous in that they can exploit a general sense of self loathing that an unnervingly large number of people feel. This new face of liberalism is nothing more than cuckoldry. They don't believe that they deserve for things to be good, so they are dead set on making things 'bad' for everyone.
