My feeling is that President Obama was the second choice, but the Nobel committee couldn't fork out $1.2 million and a gold medal to every one of the 66,882,230 Americans who voted for him.
This is obviously a tribute to the people of the United States for not replacing Little Boots with another bellicose dimwit. And yet another slap in the face to Little Boots. Good.
