[Peace-discuss] Kathy Kelly and the 04.15.12 drone protest in Missouri

[Karen Medina]

Roger,

That is an interesting question. I have often seen the claim that
so-and-so has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Besides the Nobel Committee, I suppose the people who nominate a
person would know.

So, I went looking to see who can nominate people and I found this
interesting bit of information:
Qualified Nominators
The right to submit proposals for the Nobel Peace Prize shall, by
statute, be enjoyed by:

1.	Members of national assemblies and governments of states;
2.	Members of international courts;
3.	University rectors; professors of social sciences, history,
philosophy, law and theology; directors of peace research institutes
and foreign policy institutes;
4.	Persons who have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize;
5.	Board members of organizations who have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize;
6.	Active and former members of the Norwegian Nobel Committee;
(proposals by members of the Committee to be submitted no later than
at the first meeting of the Committee after February 1) and
7.	Former advisers appointed by the Norwegian Nobel Institute.
The Nobel Peace Prize may also be awarded to institutions and associations.

It does not answer your question, but at least we know who besides the
committee might know -- if they nominated someone.
