Would 5000 people speak for the whole world? 50,000? What poll number would reflect the "whole world."
Oh yeah...I'm usually sharper than this, huh? Just state your opinion...you don't have to be patronizing.
It's Gallup. You know...the folks that make a lot of money doing this stuff. But hey...you know the science of polling better than THEY do.
Actually, while I'd buy their "total" numbers....breaking it down any further than that would get really dicey really fast with that sample size.
In short, general world opinion of Obama is probably decently estimated by the poll.
The opinion of say France with regards to the US would not likely be statistically valid because they are polling so many different countries that they can only have on average 8 or so respondants per country.
P.S. The problem isn't Gallup. It's morons with journalism degrees taking numbers and running with them like scissors. If they're not quoting what Gallup is actually claiming....I'd ignore their conclusions.
I feel bad for the very very few of you last gaspers that are left. You are trying to find anything that will help you hold onto your belief that Osama has done something good, right and noble. In reality he's killed innocents , lied repeatedly to the American people, lost more SCOTUS cases than anyone wants to admit considering he's a "constitutional lawyer", has put the economic security of this country in grave risk, created the largest group of entitlement tweakers in history and allowed terrorist organizations to create complete chaos in the Middle East. Not to mention destroying the union and middle class workers via illegal immigration policies that allow anyone to walk across the border.
It's time to put the big girl panties on and admit electing someone because they are black and not because they are qualified was a complete failure. Impeach this moron and let Biden take over for the remainder of the term. At least he will be quiet and suck his binky and not get into anymore trouble until we can put someone in office that knows what the hell they are doing.
Here...have a Snickers.

You do that.
Look, I made no grandiose claims on my OP, nor did I read more into the link than what's there.
Bush approval ratings were higher for some nations in 2008, during the economic collapse.
You'd better look at your graph again.
