We're no more and no less popular than we were since we've been using the Middle East as our foreign policy sims game, for lack of a better example.
There is a deep-seeded resentment in the Middle East because of the United States, which tends to reinforce the oppressive religious law, or sharia law, which also then curbs the Middle East's chances of evolving with the rest of man-kind.
No one, single administration will change that. It will take a minimum of 2 generations of "fair" policy, and leaving them the **** alone.

The OP is a bagger who's trying to say that he wants Obama to make US more popular amongst Arabs, then he will go back to his fellow Tea Partiers and complain how he hates Arabs and Obama pals around with Arab terrorists.
I really don't care whether or not the USA is less popular now with Arab countries than it was when Bush was president. What bothers me is that we were more respected by the Arab countries back then. Of course, that really isn't a surprise since Bush himself respected our country more than the current White House occupant.

He did?
The same guy who ignored pre-9/11 intelligence explicitly stating Al-Qaeda has specific plans to fly planes into prominent American skyscrapers and other targets, while simultaneously given intelligence showing Muslim training pilots in Florida with no interest in learning how to land the plane? You mean the guy who went to endless lengths to make sure we entered a pointless war in Iraq? The same guy who endorsed the single largest reduction of American civil liberties this country has known since 1776, via the Patriot Act?
But..... but..... but..... don't the LWNJ's insist that we need to befriend and bow to the religion of peace to get respect?
Nuh, nuh, no...the left simply said that fighting a war for peace is like f*cking for abstinence.
