Are Americans Getting Prettier?
I'm not speaking about physical beauty. I am talking about the inner beauty of America. Technically, I don't think that we have become any better, but as the saying goes, "beauty is in the eyes of the beholder."
Do other people see us as the "Ugly Americans" that we were a few years ago. Everyone loves Obama (except ahmadinejad maybe). This gives us "carte blanche" to say whatever we want. Essentially, what I am saying is that Obama could declare war on Switzerland and no one would care.
As the argument in the 'Supernews' clip below is presented, Obama has raised our approval ratings across the world (namely Europe). I wonder if he is simply saying the same things as Bush, but in an accent that isn't Texan. I don't know if that is a terrible thing. Technically, among the series of checks and balances and advisers that the president deals with, a president is more a figure head than a true leader. Technically speaking, I don't know if the president is actually important.
I think that he won the Noble Peace Prize because he changed the way extremists view America, not because he is really doing anything. Of course he did have that speech in Egypt.
Do you think Obama has done anything real, or do you think he is a figure head in America?
