No Obama says it's the most respected. So your wrong.

This is news and warranted it's own thread.

Was there some kind of world wide respect poll done that Obama is citing? How many people from each country are polled?

Aren't you from Europe, living in Florida though? Why would you be receiving hostility?

Nah, I'm Indiana born (and grew up in Florida). I'm not fluent in French (I can speak and understand a fair bit though) and I have a noticeable American accent. There were some pretty memorable moments when I was little, like when I was speaking with my brothers in a grocery store in English, some French dude once rammed our cart and my mom snapped "Ca va mal ou quoi?" in her Belgian accent and the dude just about shit his pants with embarrassment.

Actually it was my dad.

So I was off a few generations

It's not even Norway dude 🙁

I think it's like Canada and Switzerland or something

It's definitely not Canada. It is one of those countries in Europe that begin with an S. Either Switzerland or Sweden.

Well, I think you might be looking at "respect" differently than Obama. To you, I imagine "respect" would mean something like "they believe in our capacity to act decisively as a nation" which can either mean "confidence" (they have our back when shit hits the fan) or "fear" (they're a loose cannon country that can attack at any moment). I think Obama has lessened both of those factors through his more cautious, at times indecisive, form of diplomacy.

However, Obama has also made great strides in cleaning up the image of America as a borderline rogue state (the "fear" angle), which isn't something to sneer at. While Obama's been president, I've experienced much less hostility while traveling in Europe than I did when Bush was in the White House.

i agree.

but honestly i don't really respect the US as a great nation. i feel like it has been socially (internally) degraded over time.

although i can't really complain, i have Tony Abbot as the head of the leading political party and he just f*cks up

haermm no

Switzerland has the LHC, good taxes and chocolate.

So essentially TI is butthurt because a politician said something that any and every logical politician has said and decided to make a thread about it. Seriously, TI? You're going to call Obama out on this of all things?
