Which Presidents and Vice Presidents have won a Nobel Prize?

Our story starts in 1906 when Theodore Roosevelt became the first President to win a Nobel Peace Prize. Since then, three other Presidents and one Vice President have received the honor.

Below is a list of recipients from the White House:

President Woodrow Wilson in 1920, for his efforts in ending the First World War and help in creating the League of Nations.
President Jimmy Carter in 2002, for his efforts in finding “peaceful solutions to international conflicts, advancing democracy and human rights, and promoting economic and social development.”
Vice President Al Gore in 2007, for his efforts to obtain and spread knowledge about climate change.
President Barack Obama in 2009, for his efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation.
