Well, Obama has not done much in the way of improving the situation, and he continues with his obsessive drone bombings indiscriminately killing people. Most of the rest of the world has lost a ton of faith/respect for Obama when it comes to foreign policy.

Nope, didn't need to, someone else did it already, I've posted this several times before but here it is again:

Notice the bottom third of the chart titled "Approval of Obama's International Policies" where every segment surveyed has shown drastic declines since Obama took office....nothing to blame on Bush here, this is specific to Obama. And the sample size was about 25,000 people if I remember correctly.
