Obama wins but Gandhi was undeserving according to the "committee" during his last years on earth. There are many people who spent their whole lives trying to make this world a better place, what has Obama done to truly deserve this award?

From the Nobel website

"Gandhi made the Nobel short list three times: in 1937, 1947, and then posthumously in 1948. In 1937, the committee’s advisor criticized Gandhi’s dual role as a peace activist and political leader of an independence movement, writing that he “is frequently a Christ, but then, suddenly, an ordinary politician."


"On 27 November 1895, Alfred Nobel signed his last will and testament, giving the largest share of his fortune to a series of prizes, the Nobel Prizes. As described in Nobel's will, one part was dedicated to "the person who shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses". "


I don’t see what Obama did to deserve this being nominated 2 weeks into his term.
