The storyline goes something like this: Americas one-time popularity in the world was squandered by George W. Bush, whose belligerence and unilateralism after Sept. 11, 2001 alienated allies and engendered widespread anti-Americanism. But now, with the election of Barack Obama, America can restore its good name and regain the worlds goodwill.
One vigorous exponent of this narrative has been Obama himself. The single most important issue that we're facing in this election, he said during the campaign, is choosing a leader to repair all the damage that's been done to American's reputation overseas. On the day I become president, he often told voters, the world will look at America differently."

Will someone please wake me when this nightmare is over?!
but by the time the honeymoon has ended the damage will already be done! socialized medicine, rampant sodomy, fast-food-style abortion clinics on every corner
if we only had a way to somehow elect George W Bush for a third
He isnt the President yet, in fact he isnt officially the President-elect yet, not until the electoral college votes him in with 270 or more votes. But there is a problem, the SCOTUS told him to produce a valid COLB by Dec. 1, if he cant the electors cant legally vote for him! Dont count your chickens before they hatch as they say!
Very true, but also, true is that the State department, and its foolish regulations...thinking itself above presidential policy, has largely angered many countries. No one in the State department is an elected official, but they make policy as if they were. They are about 80 leftist-leaning.
O doesn’t WANT everyone to love him now that he has won, he wants everyone to fear him.

How sure are you of this?
The naivete of world opinion is breathtaking. These are the same people who thought Hitler could be talked to. They still persist in their thoroughly childlike view that militant Islam can be talked to. This despite decades of Islamo-fascist violence. Many of these anti-American countries are also facing a demographic disaster. Hate America while you can...your country might not be yours in twenty to fifty years.
