I'm not sure why that would be such an issue. Nobel prizes? Almost certainly, probably quite a few, but the politics of the winners of many types of prizes are not always very well known. Nobel Peace Prizes? - Well that prize seems to have become a bit of a joke, but Theodore Roosevelt won one (although he wasn't always a Republican, for a time he was in the Bull Moose Party, but that was after he won the prize), and that's just looking in to presidents who've won the prize, not all winners of it. Back in the early 1900s you could support an assertive American stance in the world and still win the Nobel Peace Prize if you actually did something to help achieve peace (like Roosevelt and his mediation of the negotiations to end the Russo-Japanese War)
