Think, folks, we've got literally an INTERNATIONAL viewership here, not just the US. And while most of us are in the US, and have our various opinions, we can actually get input from OTHER COUNTRIES as well!
In as much, I see a few names mysteriously missing from comment, and would be curious to hear what the people of THEIR contries think...(you know who you are

(ICY!))
Speak up, let us know just how the Americans ARE viewed....often times our media, if it covers it at ALL, gives it such a slant we never get to know what the REAL feelings of other countries are towards Americans.
