“Politicians fare less well than activists in the rankings because they are in the business of trying to be all things to all people, whereas humanitarians can champion one noble cause with far less compromise thrust upon them,” says Craig Worden, Vice President of Public Affairs at Angus Reid Strategies. “Regardless, President Bush’s poor showing is noteworthy because he is ranked similarly to the very leaders that he has sought out international assistance to oppose.”

Better check my profile Phoenix girl. Want to compare travel to other countries now. I've lived in Europe for nine years not mention a few other places. I'll let your worry about world opinion because I don't. The world has hated the US for years.
Yeah, I have no idea why some people hate us US folks for basically no reason. Don't worry, the survey pools are far to small to hold any real relavence.
