Do you know what a "redneck" is? Multiply that by 10 and you get what increasingly more europeans think about americans...

It's not necessarily my opinion, but the fact is that americans are seen primarily as very arrogant and soon after as very ignorant and subsequently incredibly naive.
Personally I think it's your education system (or the lack of one) that's to blame, along with your governments that by european standards are very close to a nazi dictatorship, particularly when it comes to keep your people ignorant and oblivious to the rest of the world.
A good way to change things would be a good foreign language program, it's incredible how the vast majority of americans can't speak at least one foreign language when almost all europeans speak at least 2.

They're all human... the different just they way they talk with different language and culture. but in the end - it's a matter where you from. For me it's not a really big deal. I prefer to see the personality than the ID card.

I'm not European, but I travel and so does my mom. *In General* I've seen that people in the U.K. like America, but hate Bush. France recently elected a pro-America President.

I don't really know, these are just things I've noticed.
