<Great leaders are made by their foreign policy, not by their scandals or domestic policy (about which United States presidents have little to do). > Totally agree with you on that point and in this is why I disagree that Bush is a great leader. It's common knowledge that Bush was not familiar with 'the outside world' (except maybe Fox in Mexico) before his election so the logical conclusion is that most of his foreign policy is derived from quick tutelage based on a narrow view of the world. As I stated before, it is not Americans that are hated around the world, it is American foreign policy. This policy is not the fault of just one administration but the world remembers Bush's isolationist ideas upon entering office. Remember, he wanted nothing to do with the Palestinian situation whatsoever (probably because it was seen as Clinton's pet project) and to many nations this was seen as a slap in the face. Unfortunately, America does not have a choice but to be involved there.
