Note that ~~any~~ organization may nominate anyone for its subject area's Nobel Prize. (In this case, the nominator is The Nation magazine.) I do hope this makes it to the shortlist.

Edit: Just fact-checked myself. There's stricter criteria and The Nation is claiming they have eligibility through relations with past Nobel (Peace) laureates, who are eligible.
