Should the CEO of Guinness be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize?

It's not too early to think about nominations for next year's prize. It's already late October and the nomination must be postmarked by Feb.1 It needs to be researched and written up well. In recent years most of the nominees and winners had little connection with peace but rather were human rights activists or jailed dissidents. Recently there has been an increase in beer diplomacy, with leaders realizing the beneficial effects of beer to improve personal relations. Here is a reference to Secretary of State Clinton using beer diplomacy in Northern Ireland:
"she popped into a pub for a beer and appealed to the Northern Irish to stick together."

Although the particular beer is not mentioned, the CEO of Guinness could be considered for the worldwide production of good beer he oversees.
