Our Image Abroad

CNN political analyst Bill Shneider wrote an article today entitled "Obama Begins Repairing America's Image Abroad."

He feels like the job has begun, but the road ahead is very long and arduous. President Obama just recently traveled to Canada where he was bombarded by throngs of citizens who wanted a chance to meet him.

Canada never hated us, so this isn't a huge step forward, but it is a start.

The true test of improving America's image will be, in my opinion, successfully ending the war in Iraq and Afghanistan and coming to terms with the entire Middle East.

But I'll take what we've gotten thus far.
