Talk:W. Clement Stone
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- Stone was even nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for his philanthropic endeavors in founding the W. Clement and Jessie V. Stone Foundation.
Being nominated for the Peace Prize is an honor, but it is not official and not necessarily prestigious. Any national legislator or about a third of the university professors in the world can make a nomination, and there have been as many as 140 some years. Nominators are requested to keep their nominations secret, so it's only those wishing publicity who make announcements. Altogether, I see no reason to keep it. No offense to the subject, this is a general Nobel Peace Prize "nominees" issue. -Willmcw 03:43, Jun 17, 2005 (UTC)
