Local meteorologists with about 30 years in just
LOCAL experience are called worthless.
I like Gore. I worked on his campaign (though I really wanted Bradley). But, this isn't worth a Nobel Peace Prize.
I HATE Carter. His work on the Israel/Egypt peace accord was the most deserving of the award in my lifetime. Though Sadat & Begin had worked most of the treaty out well before Carter's intervention, Carter "closed the sale". Negotiations only count if someone can get both parties to agree. Carter did.
After 4 bloody wars in ~25 years, they've been at peace for over 30 years since the treaty he worked out. Egypt & Israel even work together with problems with Hamas.
But, Carter didn't get it. 
The "luster" of that award was tainted by the fact that terrorists like Begin ... & especially Arafat ... received the award.
