Not only was he the first black President of the United States, but also a Nobel Prize winner.
In 2009, Obama was granted the Nobel Peace Prize by The Norwegian Nobel Committee for his dedicated work to creating a world without nuclear weapons.
The former president encouraged dialogue and negotiations as preferred instruments for resolving difficult international conflicts.

Trump’s Nobel prize
During a meeting with the Pakistani press, President Donald Trump was asked by a reporter if he deserved a Nobel prize for his work during his tenure.
With so much confidence in his voice, Donald insisted he would get one if they were given out fairly.

“I think I’ll get a Nobel prize for a lot of things if they gave it out fairly, which they don’t.”
He also took a jab at Barack Obama who got his Nobel Prize eights month into his presidency. Trump disclosed that Obama didn’t deserve the award because he had no idea why it was given to him in the first place.
“He had no idea why he got it, and you know what, that was the only thing I agreed with him on.”
