Overseas, Obama's a Rock Star. FOX News Host Befuddled.

"65% of THE FRENCH"

Not Europeans, not the English (and he's talking to a English woman) but selectively THE FRENCH.

Fair and balanced?

[Dallas767]

Bret Baire, the same guy at Fox (Fixed) "news" who snarled about "Global Warming" while citing a few nights of "colder temps". So typical of Fox "news", who lies that it's "fair & balanced" but hires Reagan's Oliver North & Bush's Karl Rove.

1.) Warming theory PREDICTS both COLDER & WARMER imbalances..

2.) Thousands of scientist confirmed global warming.

3.) NASA confirmed Greenland & Arctic ice sheets are shrinking.

4.) Glacier National Park is down from about 150 glaciers in 1910 to 27 now.

[Darusdei]

not well known? lol the news here covered pretty much every major candidate and quite frankly most europeans dont like McCain

because he is just or more like bush

ppl here dont give rats ass about religion or that you have been in the army or in war

[Ovito85]

lol hes upset

[ShutterBug717]

Obama is a way of saying to the world, "sorry". It is way overdue for peace in for world. Let's head in a new and peacful direction. No on McCain and Yes on Obama.

[Adenmussa]

The lady rocks!

[dartanian22]

Sorry "Fox" what on earth does Obama being black have to do with world opinion? why say the man is black and in the next breath say hes a threat to gloabl security.. George Bush has been the most an atrosity on foreign policy how could an educated person be worse?

One last thing fox we are the rest of the world which means your brianless basis is obvious to us and our brains haven't been subdued by years of tabliod crap and senstationlism.. we still can think for our selves scary I know!!

[tacticaltheory]

Obama as president doesn't mean the worldwide image of the US will change for the better.

Obama allows that image the chance to be repaired.

McCain allows no such chance, a continuous downward spiral of attitudes toward the US and its citizens.

[ut00ba]

"could a black president improve America's image overseas?"

thats the problem! Your asking the wrong question. The rest of the world wants a smart, capable and nuanced American president, not a 'black president'... fox just cant understand that

[Delboy0]

Maybe she lied about Mccain being popular becuase her UK paper is owned by the same man who owns FOX News and we know how Bias they are towards the Republicans

[Delboy0]

Don't know where that woman came to the conclusion that that Mccain is popular in other countries most people in the UK think he Bush mark 2. The international polls show Americans abroad would vote for Obama 3/1, The UK would vote for Obama 5/1 over Mccain. Mainland Europeans would vote 7/1 for Obama and Africans, Arabian and Asian countries would vote for Obama 9/1. Obama is right now the world's most popular Politian in the world. The USA needs Obama as Pres more than the other way round.

[Stevo203]

If America votes for John McCain, i'm moving to England!

This fool should have already retired-but still thinking of nothing but war, and revenge to innocent third world countries.

You'll see if he wins, i won't be in U.S. though (United States will be bunkrupt).

Good luck.

[sanof44]

Obama has to be elected...Let the world see that America is fair and Just and Great. Let the world see that any of America's children can be President. Let the American Dream and America's eagle fly high Show the world America's Justice is not a myth..OBAMA 08

[k3304]

Bigotry was invented in Europe

[iscream22]

So they show that the French like Omama NICE

[iscream22]

Someone needs to compile the endless amount of ridiculous and slanted statements that are made on Fox news on a daily basis. It could be a full length film!

And for gods sake why the hell does the guy have to make this a racial thing, he cant just discuss his popularity elsewhere no he brings up that hes black just to make sure everyone knows

[Postmodernobjection]

She didn't realise this was supposed to push Mccain, leaving him like an upset salesman after being told the product hes trying to sell is SHIT.

[clevename]

LOL..thanks, was great watching a reporter from the well-known Republican owned and operated TV station completely fumble upon learning that McCain/Bush and Republicans in general, aren't exactly 'well regarded' in key countries of the world. He seems shocked! I guess Republicans do think so highly of themselves and their absolute belief that they are right, that they really can't see that they are well hated.

hmmm..maybe we should feel sorry for the blind fools..

hmm

NOT!NOT!!NOT! VOTE OBAMA!

[wickedweezel]

go obama...we will receive far more support from our allies with obama in the white house!

[swordsmanrex]

Obama thinks there are states in the US. The professor doesn't even know the geography of his own country and does take backs on his statements. To be favored in Europe because of his looks!?! This world is really going down the drain.

[Cosecanter]

Wow that fucker just got his pants taken off

on national television.

[kcronaldo]

in german television (2nd state program) they said they expected one million people.

there were not 1 million people at the very same spot for the euro 2008 final public viewing or the welcoming of the german national soccer team.

two hundred thousend showed up ( allegedly)

a colleague working in berlin told me that if you werent at the one spot - you wouldnt know he was in the city

barak obama is no rock star - how could he be with our experience with american presidents of the last years.

[blueangelfish1]

This election is about the jobs THEY can't create, the war THEY can't end, the healthcare THEY can't provide, the gas prices THEY can't lower and the terrorist THEY can't find!

Don't be DISTRACTED by fake issues like flag pins and gay marriage and the soon to RETURN terror warnings they roll out every election year..

Code Red

Code Orange

Code Yellow

CODE BULLSHIT!

Only 14% of Americans believe we are on the RIGHT track... That is THEIR record...make them defend it!

[jgswallow]

Go Obama!

[blueangelfish1]

Obama/BlueAngelfish1 08

"I have been vetted!"

[jshooper]

i like what this lady said ...BUT....fox news would try and simplify this into him being black....it fits into their playing to the racist simple folk and stirring up their natural fears and hatred of people who are different....they are going to push this angle if it looks like obama is gunna win

[RobertBarger]

Typical Fox News style put the spin on it, try to associate his being popular with being black instead of him being a great presidential nominee.

[priorzola]

It's not because he's black that he's popular, FOX. It's because he recognizes that the world doesn't shine out of the ass of America. Especially not anytime recently. The reason they don't know about John McCain's "service" because the vast majority of his "service" has been self-serving. Few of his policies aid global policies or do anything to encourage foreign cooperation and unity. He and his GOP are only "globalists" when it comes to pissing on poor nations to make a buck.

[RobertBarger]

priorzola

i like the way you talk, but Youtube is made up of a majority of liberals, you are pretty much preaching to the choir, try attacking them directly, write your congressman, organize a protest. Youtube is a sad excuse for activism, but it does get people thinking.

[bigman1284]

"It's not because he's black that he's popular"

thank you for being able to recognize this. Fox News is a joke

[chuckctc]

obama will lose forty states

[NKYCardinal]

God Fox News is so shallow.

Of course the question is whether a 'black president' instead of just talking about Obama as a person.

[Mornstarzz]

Great interview.

Thanks for sharing video.

Go Obama!!!

[chuckctc]

obama will lose to the true american john mccain

[vuducile]

Who cares what Murdoch says- I refuse to forgive him for using his media monopoly to hijaak the American political process. Now that they see the writing on the wall (the republicans are out, out of congress AND out of the white house), he's using the same methods to portray a new message- which is less biased but equally wrong.

They're facing some serious grassroots media reform pressures here in the US, and they're just maneuvering to get ahead of it. They're not fooling anyone.

[gotgotchill]

ericfarquard, you're an idiot! you're insulting people only to push your own point of view and you've got absolutely no argument!

[koresh20]

this journalist is pathetic and boring!

[0613162k]

In Europe any Democrat is a superstar. We don't support torture, the death penalty, guns we support universal healthcare, we were against Iraq (that includes basically 100% of the British public which Blair turned his back on by going along with Bush), we support working with the UN. These are considered centrist positions in Europe which are more in line with the Democrats naturally. Europe loved Bill Clinton, & additionally the world was interested in the 1st Africam American & woman running.

[cungilez]

I agree, basically as Americans I support Ronald Reegan as a Republican.

Now I only support a potential leader who has leadership quality and his positives policies.

Go Obama!

[ericfarquard]

cungilez, you're an idiot! while mccain is no true conservative, NObama is the exact opposite of Ronaldus Magnus(Ronald Reagan for those of you on the left)

[Dandaman95]

Correct.

Ronald Reagan raised taxes. Obama will lower them by $1000 per family per year.

[job1201204]

Wait, now some of what you mentioned is wrong, or just bad, you guys might not support guns, but hell even our liberals, not all, but a lot love their guns. We like taking those sorts of matters in our own hands, thats how we became free, and the UN, that is a global organizaiton, we dont' think it ok to allow the UN to tell us when we can and cant defen ourselves, fuck them, you might like him because he believes what you all do, but its NOT your decision, so europe, stop butting into our life.

[mayaai]

I think you need to learn more about the UN.

Particularly because your usage would suggest you have conflated it with the EU.

And also because neither would support telling the US when it could defend itself... Unless you consider our "preemptive strike" as "defense".
