Sadly, most of the people critical of the US don't understand that very few of us are as liberal or conservative as the extremeists they see on T.V. And they also look at their country's reporting of the President, and assume what he things completely and absolutely reflects what the American people believe.
Natually, this is 100% false. First off, only 1/2 of the country votes for the President who wins, and then he can lose popularity over time. Right now, only 32% (roughly) support the President, and also everybody disagrees with the President on at least one issue, and a slew of people don't argee with him on Iraq.
Unfortunately, that's what almost everybody else is judging us on. They look at the failures of Iraq, look at the President, then assume we're all JUST like him, when we're not. In fact, most of the people who voted for him aren't even like him. There are all different types of people in the U.S., but those critical can only go by what their eyes and ears recieve.
I wish all these people would go to some of our news sites, as well as many of the political blogs found in this country, then come here and read the questions, beforew finally coming here and spending a week in the U.S., just to see how much we all differ from each other.
I, nor anyone else, like to be stereotyped. It's never a good thing, and can often hurt a country in it's world standing.
Simple fact: those who aren't here, just don't know.

The whole world does not hate the average American indeed I think individually there are generous and hospitable but the foreign policies of successive governments have succeeded in alienating a great many people and some times the ordinary yank pays for this

Because americans boast and believe that they live in the best counrty...though many of them haven't even left the US. The President is always saying that the US is number one and of course no other country wants to hear it. Yes, they are a very powerful Nation. But seriously, they say that the US is the land of freedom...but in reality they have the freedom to tell people what not to do. If Americans take a couple of months and live in Europe they will see that they are more free in Europe than in America...they have to experience it for themselves.

hating George bush is not too far from the truth but we all like Bill Gates , not because he is rich but for all the charitable work he has done to save the world.
I like Jimmy Carter too. he is a kind and genuine guy.
But what i hate most about americans is the way american soldiers shouted at Iraqi elders and called them "you motherf**kers" for no reasons and trigger-happy american soldiers killing and raping women and children for fun.

Why did they hate Kennedy when he sent the Russian ships packing it back to Russia? They don't care what happens to us.

Maybe you are the one of the people who hate them...
Stop asking silly questions, you never know why a person hates another only if you look inside the heart and know what they feel.
Would you belive me if i said I LOVE YOU?? i doubt.. so how do u know that they hate him...
Got my point?
