I love President Obama.

You're right Kate. Everyone we've talked to in Europe, South Africa and Asia like Obama. On the other hand, we also lived in Central Asia and travelled throughout Europe back in the dummy Bush days. People couldn't stand the man and hated the Devil's Son himself, Cheney (evil, despicable man).
Jost Dreams, It is hard to judge any politician from the outside. But I think it is openly known that in Euope, Bush was a figure of fun. I am sure he had good points and strengths as many Americans must have voted for him. But we never heard about anything but his faux pas. And the Iran war was very much hated over here and we blamed Bush and we blamed Blair for following Bush.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. The mainstream media (Papa Bear and the rest of the dolts) may have had a field day spreading their UNeducated propaganda about Bill, but I lived in Northwest Arkansas for five years and Bill and Hillary were (probably still are) revered there by both Dems AND Republicans. They affected so much positive change in so many areas, especially education. Hilary had a big role in starting an amazing alternative high school in the city I lived; this was wonderful because it gave so many non-traditional students a chance to get an education AND learn a trade to get a great job when they graduate instead of going to college. Everyone loved them, knew them, and spoke so highly of them.
When I was old enough to finally vote, Bill was my first...I don't think my Republican family has quite got over that...too bad. I cannot wait to vote for Hillary!!! IMO, she's been the real powerhouse behind Bill all these years. Hell, she'll be fair, awesome, non-hormonal, and I bet she won't even send troops of soldiers to try to take away all of your gun stashes...she's just that great.
