Dear President Obama,
Charlie Papazian is the originating force between two industries, home-brewing and the craft beer movement. These activities occur all over the world, bringing home-brewers/craft brewers together in fellowship, brotherhood and a desire in learning about other people’s culture and history. These are industries that have created thousands of entrepreneurs, and tens of thousands of jobs.
Without Charlie's hard work passion, and vision the American Homebrewers Association, the Great American Beer Festival, and the Brewers Association would probably be non-existent. And without these organizations, the craft beer movement across the world would probably not exist.
This is an enormous legacy; well worth a Nobel Prize. Please nominate Mr. Papazian. Thank you.
