The Nobel Peace Prize is Norwegian and nothing to do with America.
I don't like Ron2, as he reminds me of somebody. So no comment from me on this.

Well as Alfred Nobel deemed Norwegians to have been more peaceful of the two nations (Swedes or Norwegians), it seen as a badge of honour to be able to give it out and can create international and domestic issues as the group that hands it out are independent of the govern of Norway (which certain countries can't get their head about and think it's a move from the Norwegian government when giving it to controversial figures like opposition in China). While a financial oriented government prefers trade and sale of fish through China.
Norwegian media is very leftist in general so mainstream media and even rightist parties would not be considered conservative (value wise).
It would be a faux pa to consider Trump a good president and say bad things about Obama. It's very one directional and people have to consent to be on board about it.
Wałęsa was seen as worker championing for workers against tyranny of politicians in 1980's of course he got a Nobel peace prize. Especially when solutions were of talks, negotiations and agreements rather then revolution, violence and war
