It is not a question whether or not the rest of the world is inferior or superior. The question is what the impact has been, and still is, of the policies of the current Leader/Government of the US on the rest of the world.

You will find that the impact has been negative, or at least Perceived as negative. What the US President does is felt across the world. It has been like that this past century, if not longer. Many of the US Policies, be they internal or external, does impact the world directly.

The most obvious one being the War on Terror. Many countries in the world have sent troops to aid the US (as the US has done for others in the past) and many countries have lost soldiers and tax payers' money, which always hurts.

I think that the current Leader of the US has damaged the image of the United States and reduced its standing in the world from a Wise, Strong, Powerful and Proud Nation to a Dumb, Bullying, Greedy and Arrogant one. From Wise to Dumb. Not good!

That is why the rest of the world cares. Of course it is up to you what you do with the info of the OP, but be aware that our Leader is our calling card to the world.

What the world is saying is, they are tired of the American mentality of war, greed and lies. They want somebody who listens to reason.

I think much of the world sees Obama as a weak leader, maybe, with this in mind, is it any wonder why our enemies would prefer him, over McCain?


So you see most of the world as enemies? If this is really how you feel then I am sorry for you and anyone else who feels this way.
This kind of rhetoric is precisely why most of the world is nervous at the prospect of Mccain as president.

Note to "World":

Thanks for letting us know who to vote for this time. The exact opposite of who you want!

McCain/Palin


So am I to understand that you think that Bush & co have done a good job?

The state of your economy is good?

The state of your constitution is fine?

The use of torture is ok?

Iraq was a great idea?

Is that what you call defending democracy and the free world, or were Bin Laden and Sadam freedom-loving heroes of yours? I wonder if you'll feel that way when Russia starts moving troops into Europe? Russia is watching the response to the Georgian situation, and has already set its' eyes on the Ukraine. Can Europe be far behind?
