The french don't benefit at all from Obama's election, they know this right? they'll continue to just live in nothingness, Just like they are in this video.
It's a terrible shame how the relationship between France and America has fallen to the wayside over the years. We share an important Revolutionary past which should be honored with honesty and good will.
Great spirit and passion in France for our President!!!!
How cool is that?
BTW, I'm an American who speaks several languages too. Too bad people don't think many (not most ) of us speak at least 2 languages and are not the ignorant hicks that we're portrayed in the media.
It's a famous song for children " Le pont (the bridge) d'Avignon" but he sings a new version with the name of the bridge on witch they are". The lyrics are
" Sur le pont d'Avignon, on y chante, on y a chante " it means " On the bridge d'Avignon, we sing , we sing "
The song is called SUR LE PONT D'AVIGNON...we used to sing it in grade school - for French class. If I remember correctly, the rough translation was "on the Avignon bridge, we dance." They're singing...on that 'local' bridge (can't catch the actual name), we're saying, "YES WE CAN!" Don't you just LOVE IT?!
Americans don't uniformly hate any country. The neocons were pissed off at Dominique De Villepin, but if I were to go off on some anti-French tirade with any group of Americans I know of, people would think I had gone completely mad.
I ALWAYS LIKED THE FRENCH. I know alot of people in America have a problem with them for some reason but I think thats stupid I am an american and I am very pro french because I know my history and the fact is WE WOULD NOT HAVE A COUNTRY without the french. It was the french supporting our struggle for independence militarily and economically that lead to our freedom from the british crown.
Thanx yea, there are alot of us unfortunately we arent all that welcome in the rest of our country. So we tend to cling to the big cities for dear life. I live in NYC and have met many kind and smart french ppl and the sad truth is there are many places in my country where the ppl are so out right ignorant and stupid that anyone with any kind of progressive attitude is seen as nearly demonic. Hopefully President Obama can end this trend.
this is one of the reason im voting for obama when was the last time u see european line up to see an american president...since the days of bill clinton and ronald regan....obama will change how people over see look at americans......
stfu bigdaddy. Don't you have anything better to do than post a rude comment about their support for Obama. You fucking Republicans are such dumbasses.
For you to know that supposedly negative comments were deleted you must spend way too much time on YouTube... Get out and expose your self to life.. or are you afraid that Bush will be watching ?
Wow, this is amazing how Obama is inspiring people all over the world. He just has that IT factor that draws people to him, its truley amazing to watch.
The American said, 'The last time I was here, I didn't have to show it.' 'Impossible. Americans always have to show your passports on arrival in France !' The American senior gave the Frenchman a long hard look. Then he quietly explained. 'Well, when I came ashore at Omaha Beach on D-Day in '44 to help liberate this country, I couldn't find any Frenchmen to show it to.' > > You could have heard a pin drop
A group of Americans, retired teachers, recently went to France on a tour. Robert Whiting, an elderly gentleman of 83, arrived in Paris by plane. At French Customs, he took a few minutes to locate his passport in his carry on. 'You have been to France before, monsieur?' the customs officer asked sarcastically. Mr. Whiting admitted that he had been to France previously. 'Then you should know enough to have your passport ready.
France used to love the U.S. They gave us the statue of liberty. They have a very long history and still observe this U.S. as a young nation. Our relations are historic. They're our neighbors and they care. It's as simple as that.
A good summary of the French point of view. I would just disagree with "France used to love the US". We still love/hate them :)
We expect a lot from the USA. The Statue of Liberty might only be a symbol, but its a darn good symbol and not only does the USA have to keep deserve it year in/year out, France has to keep a watch too.
Believe it or not what the American Pesident does has an impact on the rest of the world. We are only 4 percent of the worlds population and we carry so much weight, so it matters to them.
- b/c, unlike most americans, they're not ignorant asses who only care 4 themselves and whats directly in front of them at the moment. Our citizens are the most uneducated especially when it comes to global studies...it's pathetic.
What do you call someone who speaks 3 languages? Tri-lingual....
"we only need to speak one language because every else speaks english too. its quite low to insult your own countymen".
no whats low and insulting is the notion that the world should adjust to OUR standards, but we can't embrass theirs. Why do you think everyone else speaks several languages? B/c they're actually educated and have obtained knowledge on global issues. The average american is lazy (thats why we pay mexicans min. wage to do our "dirty work"). THE WORLD DOESNT REVOLVE AROUND YOU!
Not true at all.. I am American, and I speak French, Italian, Spanish and I study Latin. I am still in high school. You are generalizing and using a few Americans to influence your opinion of our country. I love Europe, as do most Americans. I am travelling to France in April and I can't wait to converse with some french men and women about how they view the U.S. Just know this... everyone isn't bad in the U.S. It is the people of our government who have been bad. Don't judge the U.S. on Bush.
am half french and i agree with what u said, anyway France is really good at bad mouthing about america, but trust they are many issues your country deal better with..
I am American and I speak Spanish, French, German, some Russian and some Chinese. I know all the countries of the world, where they are located and what their capitals are. Please do not stereotype all Americans as ignorant about the world at large. It just isn't true.
Most Obama supporters thought once he was elected they would have it made. No really I had friends calling saying everything was going to be o.k. when he got in. Mass delusion that seems to have spread to delusional people around the globe. Obama is false hope.You have to remember we live in A republic not A democracy our system is set up to keep the mob from ruling the minority who don't agree with their backwards form of government. And I don't mean left or right I mean corrupt.
I am an American and I am teaching myself several languages. You are going by stereotype, sir, and there are quite a few of my people that aren't like that. In my area of the United States Spanish is spoken almost as much as English, so you do need to know a bit of Spanish. I have great admiration for Europe, it has some great history, very beautiful architecture, and wonderful landscapes.

Ahhh... don't worry about that; Obama is from Chicago; thousands of dead voters vote in Chicago elections every year.
Europeans could get some khaki shorts and shirts, and march around Invesco Field with torches and banners at the convention; that would look great on TV!
We could call it the Democratischeparteitag der Einheit und Starke or, World Democrat party Rally Day of Unity and Strength.
It worked for the Germans (well, for a little while) couldn't we try it here; YES WE CAN!
That's not what the US press is reporting. They are saying that Pakistanis are angry about Obama's stance towards Al Qaeda in Pakistan. What's the truth?
there are a small amount of people that think obama, is anthere bush. but most of the pakistanis love obama.we in pakistan are having a hard time cos of al-qaeda.we need a leader like obama to help us. not just some one like bush who throws bombs, and create more problems for us.
The french don't benefit at all from Obama's election, they know this right? they'll continue to just live in nothingness, Just like they are in this video.
