Mahatma Gandhi has never won it. Hitler, Stalin, and Mussolini have been nominated at one time or another. One of the worst Presidents in American history Jimmy Carter, has won it. Henry Kissinger won it. I can assume that the Peace Prize is really just a slam against Barack Obama, some sort of insult.

Pssstt...
Gandhi almost won it but... the year he was supposed to get it, he suffered from a slight case of death by assassination and the committee does not award it post humously. Just thought I would slightly correct you on that from the sidelines. Oh, and Carter doesn't count because his was after the fact and for that matter add in Gore too because he never won the Presidency. Sorry for chirping from the sidelines, just wanna make sure you keep your sh*t straight! **damn...getting crumbs all over my good couch!!**
