forget about it ,the USA image in the world is beyond repair,\nthey have been meddling and manipulating other countries pólitics for to long.\nthey have killed too many people.or helped other people to kill people,by selling them arms.\n\nThe agressive actions of America will continue and increase ,resulting in more and more fear and hate as time goes on.  many.many more people,in fact millions are going to be killed,if the plans of the illuminati are anything to go by\n\nso what ever propaganda they may come up with ,will contradict the actions and so will have no effect ,and nobody can do anything to improve the image.

unfortunately I agree\nunless there is something in it for us\nit's a hard sell to convince the us to send troops to police the world, though I do applaud it when we do. the troulbe is we always get caught up in the quagmire of international politics and never fully commit to a mission, thus we fall short and it looks like a half hearted attempt with casulties that we have a hard time stomaching. Look up a group called Executive Outcomes to see how it's done right.

First, i would tell the United Nations to back us up on N. Korea and Iran, or i would withdraw the united states from the (un)United Nations.  I would do away with the national income tax, instead imposing a 12% sales tax on all goods bought, saving americans 30% of thier pay checks and enabling them to save money.  I would regulate internet poker instead of attempting to ban it, and use the money for universal health care.  I would work with Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and other moderate Middle East/Southern Asian countries to develop a free trade agreement to improve the economy of those countries, which would help fight terrorism.  (Its hard to recruit terrorist when people can afford to eat.)  I would also work with Iraq and Afghanistan to drastically improve the public education system in those countries, as the greatest threat to terrorism and tyranny is education, not bombs.  And i would send 50,000 more troops to the middle east for a set amount of time, putting 25000 of them to the mountains of Afghanistan and another 25000 to the city of Baghdad in order to beef up security in the capital city.  I would implement a program that would give massive tax cuts to car companys that increase fuel mileage to 40mpg, and i would legalize marijuana for the purpose of getting tax money from it, so that we could in turn use that money for a program to develop the worlds most advanced fuel alternative program, and also find ways to lower emissions.  I would also give huge tax cuts to companys that reduced their pollution rates by 10%.  One last thing, i would do away with the death penalty, instead sending murderers, rapists, and repeat child molesters to a hard labor camp in alaska, where they would be forced to work 12 hours a day, sit in a small cell another 11 hours a day with no television, and the other hour they would get to talk to family members.  That would curb crime.\nVote for me.  :)

very.  to fix is you need to redefine a nation's priorities.  change from what i want (something to entertain me) to what they need (the need for basic items to live).  interesting question to pose to the most selfish and self obsesed people in the world.  (not every american is like that, but i think as a nation we are).

hahahaa... I don't think we have a foreign policy... we're just sending our jobs to Central/South America and Asia, while blowing up the middle east... and ignoring anything Europe says \n\nMaybe that's quite a complex foreign policy to Bush, but it doen't cut the mustard with me...

I wish we could do something.  The only thing I can think of is to get rid of W and quit being bullies in the Mid East.  I wish we had a way of organizing something nationally to protest this crap.

Transfer our foreign policy expenses to investment on domestic grounds. Mainly on helping college students, people who need medical assistance, trying to boost American educations as high as and beter than foreign ones. Tighten incoming security to America even though I probably wouldn't have too much trouble since I would withdrawl all forces from the middle east, that way the radical Muslims won't have to attack us for occupying their precious sand boxes and telling them how to live.\n\nI would encourage capitalists to make more long term capital investments that focus on infrastructure, narrowing it all the way down to local economies, rather than get rich quick off of Wall Street and then putting it all in a bank account in Switzerland rather cycling the GMP.\n\nI'd limit the fuel consumption and capacity on cars in the making, and give tax breaks to those who prefer not to drive oil prices crazy and pollute the air. I'd also tax companies who love to pollute and out source jobs, so if it doesn't say made in America, you're going out of business, unless your stock runs in Singapore, Tokyo, or London, then it's just an import.\n\nI'd also make birth contol free for anyone without a high school diploma and lower the price for those \n\nI can go on non stop, but the major focus is that if we leave other countries alone and mid our own business, we'd get alot accomplished and not have to worry about terrorist attacks becuase people like bin Laden or Timothy McVeigh would have no reason to attack us unless they're plain crazy. And as for the people who really do need the relief, like Kuwait or those tribes in Kenya, then we'll wait to play it safe and ride along with the UN, not the UK, and then take action.

Libertarian answer:\nGive them what they want.  Why does our own arrogance trump common sense?\n\n1)  Stop giving foreign aid to Israel.  We give them $9000/year to every man, woman, and child.  Why are we paying for this from our hard-earned tax dollars?\n\n2)  Stop arming their dictators and keeping the oppressors in power?  Want to disarm the middle-east and bring about democratic change...DON'T SELL WEAPONS TO THEM.  Stop letting arms smugglers go with a wink and a nod.  Don't sell them the means and tech to produce biological and chemical weapons the dictators will use to stay in power and murder their own people more efficiently.\n\n3) Stop educating the jihadists.  That's right, their anti-american, pro-killing jihadist textbooks used in the maddrassas ARE PRINTED BY OUR GOVERNMENT and given to them in a program running from the mid 70's until today.  Knock it off.\n\n4)  Break the Saudi OPEC monopoly.  Our business treaties with the middle east mainly involve bribing the Saudi's and other shieks with huge amounts of cash for their oil.  They in turn use that money to mollify the poor folk by arming them, keeping them angry but loyal and blind to the class difference in their own countries.  Our foreign policy supports this whole-heartedly.  WE DON'T CARE if it is a democracy or a dictatorship, so long as they are Western friendly.\n\n5)  Open a real dialogue of understanding, this means our foreign policy must be more than "Yeeee-haw!!!".  Use real statesmen and diplomats that are culturally sensitive and can work out real deals that keep the interests and dignity of everyone in mind.  One-sided demands really don't work that well, nobody likes to be threatened or bullied into doing things against their self-interest.\n\n6)  Let them evolve and come around themselves.  Don't give any quarter in our own territory, but at the same time don't infringe upon them.  Their cultural values are as sacred to them as ours are to us.  Accept the fact that there is no black and white, right or wrong, good or evil.  The western powers have not been saints EVER in their countries, nor are all Arabs demonic heathens.

We are an amazingly divided people and need to get over our petty differences if we ever hope to do anything good on a large scale.\n\nGetting rid of Bush would also be nice.

America is at one of it's lowest in popularity (next maybe to that maid with open legs of a country supposedly governed by blair), you'd have to do a lot to improve on the Public opinion of your country in the eyes of the world as well as the Americans themselves.\nAlso, just stop the bush from putting his foot in the mouth everytime he open it.\nst

My current belief is that the president is not smart enough to realize what he's doing.\n\nOh how I'd absolutely LOVE to send his ass overseas

THE U.S. has more nukes than we know what to do with.  Any idiotic country that would openly attack us  deserves to die in a nuculear holacost for their stupidity.
