This President vs the last one. |
|
One poll I was looking for for quite a while, when Bush was President, was the most hated man in the world. I recall years ago, that it was always the Russian Prime Minister or some other hated dictator. .. From 2004 or 5 on, I gather it was Bush. So many people around the world hated him and we all knew it. But, it would not look good , so the MSM kept that one out of the news. Now a year and four months later, we now have the most admired person in the world in Mr Obama. And this one feels good. I am proud that our leader is so respected in so many places.

I remember being in Europe during the time Kennedy was President.
They loved President Kennedy, just loved him.
I was proud to be an American.

2. The respect that other leaders give Obama, is great compared |
|
to the disguised contempt (and not so disguised) they showed Bush.

5. Yes, it feels good that the rest of the world have President Obama in great esteem |
|
Too bad that he is the "most hated" President in history right here at home!
I sure appreciate him, admire him,. . .and I do trust him.

6. I disagree...Obama is not the "most hated" President |
|
in history. Yes, the hatred for him may be loud and strident. --ugly and abusive--true.
Far more people here hated Bush than currently hate.. Obama. And Nixon..killed hundreds of thousands more. (I know, he had a "secret plan" to end the Viet Nam War..)
My guess is, most Americans respect Obama. Fox news watchers excluded.
