1. At the 100th Anniversary of his winning the Nobel Prize
Of course, that depends on which party is in charge of the government at that time.

4. I would think Jimmy Carter would be more deserving at this time
Al Gore has done a tremendous job, but Carter was a peacemaker during his presidency as well as after. He is a well rounded humanitarian as well. The Carter Center has done a lot to alleviate suffering in the world and monitor elections and work towards peace.

6. Agreed, just trying to point out
that they are pushing a coin for Roosevelt winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, all while trying to trash Al Gore and the Nobel Peace Prize organization.

Strange times we live in...
