Our name has become mud throughout the world and especially in Europe. We are a laughing stock- even to our Canadian neighbors.
The rest of the world clearly recognizes that change is needed- not only to help us, but to ultimately help them. They think of Bush as an ignorant bully who started a war by lying not only to all Americans but also to our allies throughout the world.
The Iraq War has affected countries other than our own- all based upon a lie from the Bush administration.
Europeans tend to be a peaceable people for the most part. They have seen McCain sing about bombing Iran. They have news over there that is completely unfiltered and they know what kind of man he is. And they do not respect him.
I work for a company that is headquartered in Europe. And they all hope that Barack Obama wins this election.
i guess obama is planning on buying world love with american taxpayer money. that is an interesting twist that many americans do not appreciate. check out his global poverty bill and his foreign debt reduction bills!
i suppose for the people who want the rest of the world to love us no american taxpayer price is too big to pay!
you know what the difference between the united states and europe? in europe, the middle class pay half their paycheck in taxes and get a ton of services. in the US, the middle class pays half their paycheck in taxes and gets nothing.

They sure do. But don't you think they want him to win for THEIR best interests?
I just hope and pray to God nobody is voting for Obama because of how Europe feels about him.
McCain is a yes man. He only does what others tell him to do. He says what you would like to hear. He flip flops to fit his need for your vote. He is NOT a leader by any standards. He has no idea what to do if he was elected. He caters to anyone who wants something. Congress, lobbyists and others will tell him how to run the country. If you think it was bad under Bushka, wait until you see McCain as the president.
I thought our ancestors came here because they didn't want to be over there. Do you think our ancestors would care who the Europeans thought we should elect as our President? Uh...no.
Our ancestors are dead and that was a long long time ago. Uhhh, the world is different now (gawd, it feels ridiculous to be having to tell someone this!).
you are right. the world is much worse. now we have to get a permit to blow our noses, and pay fines if we don't have a permit. what a world we live in. we get tickets by mail now. guilty without a fair trial. what an age we live in.

Hmmmm... Let me think, the last time I cared about what Europes opinion of us and our election was uhhhh... NEVER!
Ya, until you want some allies to help fight a war, or your city was hit by planes and contributions from ALL OVER THE WORLD poured in.
Forgot to add: WANT TO BORROW MONEY.
This attitude by repubs that the U.S. does not need to care what the rest of the world thinks is just stupid. There isn't a better word but some runners up would be:
Short-sighted
Backwards
Ignorant
Isolationist
Stupid
Arrogant
Blind
Anti-Peace
Pro-war
Stupid
Unsophisticated
Narrow
