He can only be president for two terms, can't he? [B]I hope Hillary steps up to the platter next. I think she would be a wonderful president, too.

at the image of America overseas lol

And west, or at least EU is pretty much pissed that America is spying on us for example, and thats hardly the only thing that went wrong, hun.

And tbh, I hope Hillary never becomes a president. Im rooting for powerful and intelligent women like Angela Merkel or Catherine Ashton, but Hillary is not a good politician, and certainly not a good diplomat.

"Restored a positive image of America overseas"

As if. I doubt America will ever have an overwhelmingly positive image outside of its borders.

The way people view the US will probably never be 'overwhelmingly' positive, because the US is a superpower that takes it upon itself to police the world.

That said, the general perception of the US has increased since Obama came to power in 2008.

Quote:

Global views of the United States have improved markedly over the last year while views of many countries have become more negative, according to the latest BBC World Service poll across 28 countries. For the first time since the BBC started tracking in 2005, views of the United States' influence in the world are now more positive than negative on average.

Quote:

In the current poll, half or more of those surveyed have a positive opinion of the U.S. in 28 of 38 nations. The percentage of people who give the U.S. a positive rating has increased significantly in 19 of the 28 countries polled both this year and in 2007, when the Pew Research Center last conducted a global survey on this scale.

America’s improved image is coincident with Barack Obama assuming the presidency in 2009. Obama has largely received more positive ratings than his predecessor, George W. Bush. Today, at least half of those polled in 24 of 39 nations say they have confidence in the American president to do the right thing in world affairs. Eight-in-ten or more hold this view in Germany (88%), the Philippines (84%), France (83%), Canada (81%) and Kenya (81%).

That isn't to say support for Obama hasn't waned with time, but the fact remains that people view him and the US more positively since Obama replaced Bush as President.

Quote:

Europeans generally give the U.S. high ratings, especially in Italy, where 76% now have a positive view of America, up from 74% last year and 53% in 2007. Greece is the only European country polled where fewer than half offer a positive assessment of the U.S.

In both France and Germany, ratings for the U.S. are much higher today than they were during President George W. Bush’s tenure, but they have also declined somewhat since 2009, the first year of Barack Obama’s presidency.

....

The U.S. receives largely positive ratings in most of the nations surveyed in the Asia/Pacific region. This is especially true in the Philippines, South Korea, Japan, and Australia, where about two-thirds or more hold this view.

It is striking how of all the Western countries the United States are actually the most corrupt. I don't know a lot of people that are positive about the United States

US image in most countries is hugely influenced also by the entertainment bussiness. People often underrestimate how powerful is this aspect in the creation of US WW image.

But the view on US foreign policy is very different. Of course there was improvement, but thats easily understandable considering who his predecessor was. I, for example, have also a better impression of Obamas administration than Bushs, but it doesnt mean its a positive one.

HERMES

He probably scolded them for this.

Not shocking to me. We've been ****** people from the very beginning. All the ******** we started and we still have nothing to show for it. I wish I could move to a different country. (unless Sen. Sanders becomes president in 2016)
