Frankly I think the BIG issue is the role of religion.

Religion may have a formalised role in Europe, but it's actual IMPACT and influence is rather superficial.

Actually, its rather more basic than has been discussed.

Many europeans see Americans a big, dumb, unsophisticated louts who refuse to take orders from europeans.

They resent us because we are more sucessful.



Thank you for highlighting the reason why the second line is thought.

...and no it's not that basic.

The reason is diverse. Many around the world have an decidedly increased negative feeling toward the US since George Bush came to power.

Clinton was ALWAYS warmly received.
