Today the associated press posted an article about the worldwide disappointment President Obama has been.
According to Don Melvin and Rod McGuirk with AP.com;
In Europe, where more than 200,000 people thronged a Berlin rally in 2008 to hear Barack Obama speak, there's disappointment that he hasn't kept his promise to close the military prison at Guantanamo Bay, and perceptions that he's shunting blame for the financial crisis across the Atlantic.
In Mogadishu, a former teacher wishes he had sent more economic assistance and fewer armed drones to fix Somalia's problems. And many in the Middle East wonder what became of Obama's vow, in a landmark 2009 speech at the University of Cairo, to forge a closer relationship with the Muslim world (Attribution).
Looks like Obama's nearly impossible to accomplish campaign promises were believed worldwide. Imagine the disappointment when Obama applied tired old Keynesian style economics to address America's economic woes.
