How to get nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize

CNN published this video item, entitled “How to get nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize” – below is their description.

When news broke that Jared Kushner and Stacey Abrams had been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, members of both parties were outraged. Here’s the thing, though: Being nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize is a LOT different than actually winning it. In his latest episode of The Point, CNN’s Chris Cillizza ticks through the political ramifications of a Nobel nomination.
