Thank you Barack!

George Dubya Bush did an amazing thing when you think about it. He took America from a position of extreme international sympathy and goodwill - immediately post 9-11 - to being one of the most hated countries on the planet. Looking back, his efficiency in accomplishing that was amazing.

And his foreign policy has pretty much guaranteed there will be anti-American terrorists for at least another generation.

So I think it would be a bit naive to think everything is hunky dory now - however the recent election will certainly have improved international goodwill. Progress is good.

Improved international goodwill? Europeans hate black people if you don't know this you haven't been to europe. Just look at the soccer games where EUFA cancelled some home games for teams that fans were yelling racial slurs. I'm ashamed to be an american now as all my relatives over there ask me how can you have a (you know) as a president? I tell them the guy brainwashed everyone to think he'll do everything he said but he won't do much.

Mr. Treece,

You cannot choose your relatives, but you certainly can think for yourself. I suggest you try it and stop denegrading yourself.

Denigrating, from Latin niger, black. Americans of all people should be able to remember that one.

I know why you made the comment and there's an element of truth in what you're saying, but it's also a massive generalisation, it's a bit like saying Los Angeles has been overrun by gangs....it has and it hasn't.

People tell me I'm abusive but I always try and tell them I'm only abusive if either abused, disrespected or have no other option. You fit into number three you fvckin halfwit.

Do you realise how embarassed 99% of your fellow Americans would be if they read your totally innacurate post? You're a fvckin numbskull, how you've got the nerve to try to influence peoples political beleifs is beyond me, you're a fvckin moron with zero credibility or respect.

If you can read try reading some history books and educate yourself about how many Poles died during the second world war and how important their contribution was.

Two of the countries you named (France & Holland) did far less in World War 2 than Poland, in fact the French lasted 2 weeks and that was 2 weeks longer than the Dutch.

Educate yourself you fvckin plank.

Ryan,

I bet you couldn't find Poland on a map pal. I am not Polish at all but what you said shows your plight of ignorance. Obama wouldn't like to hear that from a fellow American.

I've been to 70 countries and counting, and have always been proud to be an American. If we lifted our visa restrictions and let anybody who wanted to be here come freely, our country would break away from Mexico and Canada, and sink under its own weight directly to the bottom of the ocean.

Must have been doing something right, even before the mighty and omniscient Obama was made president-elect, IMO ...

You have got to be kidding. Ever been to France, England, Holland, to name just a few?

America is far, far more racist than Europe. Not even close.

Well, if America is in deed more racist than Europe, a big step in the right direction has been taken by electing Obama. I'm actually glad America is as Racist as you say.

African-descending populations around the world are product of Slavery; you don't need to be a scholar to figure out why this African-descending population in Europe is so reduced, especially in Eastern Europe. Now, there is a very important point to this argument, you don't need to hate black people to be a racist; have you forgotten the holocaust or the recent killings in former Yugoslavia? All of this was product of racism and intolerance, and there was not even one black human being involved in those conflicts.
