Obama Better For World Economy, Poll Finds

I am thankful that these world "leaders" don't vote here.

Corporate America giving Bloated government a wet kiss on the lips. I wonder which one is the wife in this relationship?

A good accountant can make a business look good. Apparently a good pollster can…………………………..

I did take "old school" math, but I am quite sure that even today with the newer methods, when you add together 42.7%, 20.5% and the "remaining 66%" (according to the article), you get about 129%. So, the poll has about as much credibility as this article does.

42.7% for Obama, 20.5% for Romney and 66% for neither, WOW, they managed to poll over 129.2% of the world.

He may be better for the world economy? Well what has he done for OUR country's economy? This is a very stupid article…and I was stupid enough to read it!

Bullshit! Lie Of The Day.

hey obama…your the president of the united states of america NOT THE WORLD…DUMB A$$… GET AMERICA BACK TO WORK… let there leaders lead there nation.

into what Democrats all a “voucher system"…it should say…into what Democrats call a “voucher system”…please read your work and check for grammar mistakes before posting them.

There is also a grammar mistake in this article which shows a lack of proof reading.

I thought the same thing. We need to focus on our own country 1st.

This is all bull crap we are still in a huge deficit. If you can't do the math and know how to handle money you should not run for president.

I thought the same thing lol

amen

I clicked on this looking for the punch line!

This has to be the most absurd article Yahoo has published yet.

"Their" sigh.

give us a break do you think we are stupid your pools are nothing but a joke any more where do you find these people in soup lines in chicago.

No, no, no they are using the metric system to come up with those percentages

I wouldn't call anyone a Dumb Ass if you don't know when to use "your" vs "you're"…. just sayin'

1st TIME in the HISTORY OF THE USA that we have a Candidate that admits owning OFFSHORE ACCOUNTS AND CORPORATIONS – The ONLY REASON for that is to hide Money from the US TAX Man! Unprecedented Greedy Rich Man – The Founding Fathers would roll over in their Graves. PLEASE – No personal attacks on me – I am REPUBLICAN!

I am talking about Willard Mitt Romney of course!

I am talking about Willard Mitt Romney of course!

Who cares about the world economy! He is rotten for the US economy. America is suffering at the expense of the improvement of other countries' economies. Get rid of him and his Progressive types.

lol

We just deserve an actual good president for once.

lol

agree

I kinda thought the same…you just never know with the facts they show nowadays

You have to be kidding….whoever wrote this is an idiot….42% is not overwhelming….a Muslim leader of a Free country does not work….the the rest of the world make their own decisions and afford us the same!

Good comment…focus on our country 1st.

Good comment…focus on our country 1st.

Yep David the old math is more reliable to my old butt than the new crap and I came up with the same thing. But hey what would expect when business men who paid to get Obama elected are the ones his people went to for the poll? That is how the number got so huge! Of course you need to remember that "our country" the one that he is supposed to be taking care of and worrying about, not europe hasn't been is top priority. It has been the goal to change us to another Europe. You know kind of like going home I guess. That is where many came from to start with. When he loses the election…..many hope maybe he will go over there with his wife and tell those people what to do. Tjhem she can find another country to be ashamed of..hmmm…like Luxemburg. Watch out Luxee's. She is a wildcat…….

Sigh, "you're" "their". And it's not really a national economic structure anymore. Thanks to capitalism it is now a global economy. If Romney has his way, he'll deregulate corporate standards making the world more responsible for our economic growth, as more work is outsourced for cheaper labor.

if you wanna hate on this person for their grammar then hate on the guy who wrote this article and the poor quality of his work as a professional writer…she didn't capitalize obama either and she spelled ass like a$$…who gives a crap??? you all should go sigh elsewhere.

Not really "hating", just correcting. If someone wants to post a retort as if they have a solution, and be condescending, they should at least use proper grammar. I think the general consensus is the same, the article is garbage and the author was lazy. Perhaps you're right, we'll leave the ignorance alone.

Whom did they poll, crackheads?

You guys all realize that the world economy includes us and we cannot prosper if other countries are failing. We buy and sell from other countries so if they hurt so do we. This article is relevant so please read up on basic economics before commenting further.

Yahoo you suck!

Well, of course executives of OTHER countries are going to say this. With the USA out of the business picture, it would most assuredly be better for the ''world'' economy to have Obummer in for another 4 years. Which is why us Americans are going to vote him out.

Think about this if we are doing well and we have no one to do business with what is the point?

Do you really think that the other countries have OUR best interest at heart? Don't be conned again by this BS. It's Chicago politics at its best. Down and dirty. Never the truth. Smooth talking crap. Get me a roll of TP, please. We need to wipe Obama and Biden out of the White House before it gets covered up with even more of the same old poop.

This article and idea is just simple BS. If you don't know what that means, I will spell it out for you…bullshit.

I always admire those who own their own business. We should all support business owners more. Your comment was right on. That's exactly why he would hide it. It's his money. Like it's your money. You built your business and deserve to keep your earnings not be taxed at a ridiculous rate.

Hey John Charles, not the only reason. Protection from our government would be a real concern. If you had any money you would be concerned as well or you can share it with the poor

Great! Let him run for president of the world then. Just get him the heck out of the United States. The poll shows just how obtuse Europeans are. They gave BO the Nobel Peace Prize before he had done ANYTHING! Their standards are even lower than the fools that put him into office in this country.

Come on John, wise up. All those who have money do the same thing. Now don't you think your girl Polesi doesn't have over seas accounts. Get a life you fool.

You have no F'n idea of what Romney's way is.

I hate to break this to you John, but most of the Founding Fathers were rich. Having offshore accounts that hold earnings from offshore businesses is totally valid. Your business obviously doesn't do much if any business overseas or you would know that.

Obama's Choom Gang buddies, so yeah, crackheads. Given the way things have been going Barry graduated from MJ and Smack to Crack. Only god knows what happended to Biden. Must have been massive quantities of LSD.

this survey is a joke right. america is in the toilet right now because of obama s policies and he is better for the world economy this article is very very pro obama and looking away from the facts that obama is crushing america with his so called experince.

Business executives? Better for world business how? What a dumb article.

Better to promote a new world order socialistic system..

Well then explain it Mr. Wilke, I'm so in the dark I could really use your wisdom.

Let him go somewhere else and HELP somebody else! He has helped me out of a job and out of the country to be able to pay the bills at my house!

I'm all for helping others,but his STUPIDITY hasn't helped AMERICA in any way !!

@ matt, finally an intelligent statement.

who make those Poll are they idiots do you see how the Economy is Right now, you the people who say Obama is better for the World Economy you have to be Crazy or you are a true Liberal Socialist.to say that.we are no Stupid we watch Fox News the ONly News who tell you the True from Left to Rihgt.

He is good for the world economy! He destroys the USA economy and the rest of the world gains what the USA lost!

This is just a attempt for the liberal media to get obama back in office……. how could the world economy be better off with a weaker america? The only way the world economy would be better is if we are funding all of it also….. Quit giving money to other countries and concentrate on paying off our debt. The stronger America the stronger world.

What about John Kennedy? Ya think he was poor? Even Obama is a millionaire, remember Resco gave him the land deal?? Romney gave over 3 milllion dollars to charity last year, how much did the "spread your wealth" president Obama and vice president Biden give to charity?

Thanks Matt. We are all connected, and its so important that people begin to understand that!

Only because he has sent our jobs overseas and made the worldprosper.

the only stupid person was you… let me tell u a story about former presidents, congress and economist in america who made financial deregulation allowing big corporate banks to gamble with the american peoples money which led up to the housing bubble that crashed in 2008…. and yes they knew it would crash and they did nothing about it…. and what followed, the world economy collapsed, and yes even Chinas too…. people lost their savings, houses jobs, NOT JUST IN AMERICA, while bankers in wallstreet who made those decisions became richer and former politicians who made financial deregulation possible, now working for wallstreet… im sick and tired of stupid americans choosing corrupt and stupid politicians wic leads to world disasters for the rest of us!!!!

great for the world, disastrous for the U.S.

What a stupid article. He can't get our economy straightened out but he's suppose to be better for the world economy, really!

I did not say that anyone was ignorant.

Well maybe it's time for there to be a president who can actually help stop America from hurting – keeping in mind the factors and goods that other countries bring to the table.

Shatish Raj.. How is it stupid people are choosing for you? You just confessed to being more ignorant than the stupid people you criticize. So your letting "stupid people pick your path"?… I guess it is because you don't have a clue how to clean up the rampant corrpution of your own home place. Wow! You show your ignorance by the bucket loads.

And you don't even live here???? I admit when I'm stupid, do you? When you are an American citizen, THEN you can complain about our politicians, which have, by the way made some stupid deciisions, I do agree with you on that. And I know it affects the whole world, and not to change the subject, but where exactly is Sandakan? Never heard of it…and another bit of info for you, I didn't vote for our current President. Now go pick on someone else and leave me alone. Oh wait, you have a great day!!

Yes, we are all connected but have you ever heard the saying 'take care of your own side of the street before others'? That applies here. We have to make sure OUR country is stable before helping others do the same. You can't help others if you have nothing left to give.

Wow, so world executives think they will have less competition from the U.S. and even more job exports. This is the way executives think… how would it affect MY company / situation. I agree with them.

The political parties may not be the problem. It is the Goliath that either one will have to fight… presented in this free movie.

Did they drug the pollsters when doing this? How have we forgotten all of the people who live in tent cities in America, we are slowly becoming a welfare nation.

obama/biden 2008 – hope and change.
obama/biden 2012 – DOPE AND CHAINS.
good thing the rest of the world (except the illegals, felons and dead) get to vote in this election…

There are two kinds of parasites, those who just want to eat and those who want to
make billions at our expense. Which is worse for the economy?? Obamanation must go!!

edbqwik stupid people? do u guys not know that the rest of the world have been laughing that you guys chose bush… FOR TWO TERMS!!!!…. my country is just as corrupt because hey we have alot of stupid people here too… but to say that the american politicians do not bare consequence on the rest of the world (and ie we have no opinion on the matter) is extremely stupid…

Judy Mansfield Jenkins When is in not gonna be clear to you that the politicians you choose not only determine your future but has an impact on the world. you are united states of freakin america and as much as i laugh at your choice of bush, i also put my hands to my forehead and say "WE are screwed"…. so i believe that the article is relevant when it wants opinion of ppl from finance worldwide and the choice of presidency on worldwide economy… if you are gonna put romney, he is gonna ensure the rich gets everything and wallstreet owns washington… and hence, let another 2008 occur….

Jeremy Pelfrey first of all, it really isnt an opinion based article for us to condemn, it is merely an informative article…

The NAFTA treaty and corporate welfare are the reason for most of our problems. You won't like
the 'New World Order', college boy, you won't have a job, unless you can live on international
wages in an inflated economy!!!

OPPS! ANOTHER LIBERAL SITE , I'M GONE!

Thanks Amber, you're right. At Chuckey-I'm voting Republican but you know they only work for
big business, not us!! At Jeremy-Too bad there are no good candidates. Reagan was the last
good president! I have a great grand daughter named after him!!

your are stupid our economy is directly influenced by the world economy. our stock market rise or fall is strongly based on the worlds economy especially China, Japan and europes economy. if the rest of the world goes broke, they won't buy our products that will kill millions of jobs here. and since we have outsourced so many jobs if those country economy fails american companies over here fail with them. High gas prices are due to the cost of oil not in america but in the middle east. Opec sets the price of oil and they are not an american company. we are no longer an island in the world. we lead the world and so our leaders has to be one that the world will listen to, work with and respect. Obama has been in may countries throughout his term, romney wen to England, Poland, and Isreal and managed to insult the people in all three stops. If he does this as president we would be in many wars very quickly and no one will want to work with us to help the world economy.

Because these idiots polled socialists, of course they will support their bretheren!
These socialist news agencies are the biggest liars. They better start worrying that the average Joe in the USA may come to hate them, because they are trying to persuade, not report! We will stop watching and listening.

Sometimes the timing of propaganda is as bad as the guy the propaganda is trying to promote. This blatant Obama propaganda piece comes when gas prices just went up again , the unemployment rate also went up, America fell behind Canada in household income, AND the poverty rate in America became the greatest since 1960, ALL under Obama, the guy this article attempts to promote. Obama is the 2008 "pet rock".

The opinions by the world would obviously poll this because most of the world's countries are at least Socialists which is exactly where this failure of a president is taking us. The world wants to see the US "brought down to size". And hey SR, worry about your own countries failure instead of playing the victim role and blaming the US. How quickly you forget all the countries that benefited from the success and freedoms of AMERICA!

HAHAHA, this article makes me laugh.

I've always been an Independent. This round I cannot pick the 1st Candidate in the History of the USA that admittedly owns offshore corporations and stashes money in Tax Havens. Our founding Fathers would roll over in their graves. This proves Willard Mitt Romney is a Self-Centered Ego Maniac with little Patriotism in his heart.

How many American jobs were not created by Obama pulling the pin on the Keystone II pipeline from Canada? Enviromental concerns? Whatever, we just wanted to put the Keystone TWO pipeline right beside the already existing Keystone ONE pipeline.

Canadien Oil is DIRTY????? I'm sure the Arabs maintain much higher enviromental standards than the Canadiens in the production of their oil.

Guess Canadien Oil doesn't have enough American Blood in it for Obamas liking.

I never said it was an opinion based article or an informative article…but if they didn't want people to comment on their articles then they wouldn't put a comment section below the articles…just common sense.

Hey Shane…you seem to be so pleased to blast our POTUS…how about looking at the do-nothing congress whose only goal is to put roadblocks to progress in front of our president. And the way other countries and their leaders view our leader IS important…probably as important as 'jobs' which you can also blame the other branches of our gov't as well as the individual state govt's. Only small minded, simple people think other worlds don't matter. Better learn something about world politics.

Better to inform yourself, reeheenan. Your assessment of America improving other country's economies instead of our own is incorrect. You wouldn't want to look like you don't know about world economics or politics, would you?

Amber Pickle better check behind you, your ignorance is showing! Oops. But maybe you've just been misinformed by watching FOX or listening to those who do! President Obama also supports small businesses. Furthermore, why you think it's OK for a billionaire to hide his money just makes no sense to me! The ultra wealthy do NOT get taxed at 'a ridiculous rate', my dear. They are taxed less than anyone else in this country. And as far as "you built your business…." oh my, not that misquote again? You need to read the speech in its entirety. And lastly, NO ONE 'deserves to keep their earnings' and not pay taxes. You need some serious civics lessons as do many others commenting on this article!

Hmmmm, stupid? Sounds like the proverbial pot calling the kettle black, "Kim Olsen".

Sorry Amber…..I didn't realize you're only 12 (looked at your FB page). But really, your information IS wrong. I didn't mean to pick on you…I have a daughter your age, too!

Bob Wilke good one, Bob…the founding fathers had 'offshore accounts'…you're a hoot! Oh wait, you were serious?????

Al Lozano SMH…..John Kennedy and others were wealthy, yes. But they understood the ordinary People and did NOT cheat the country by hiding money and tax returns. He wanted what was best for this country, not what's best for his fellow billionaires. Second, President Obama is NOT a millionaire. That is just false. Do you know that the POTUS makes LESS than many Big 10 college coaches???? Yes, less than half a million per year. And last, Romney's "charity" is the Mormon Church. Anything else I can inform you on?

Ramon Spinger Amber is 12 years old. She is NOT an informed voter yet!

Europeans obtuse? Really???? I don't believe you know every European, do you? The fact that you overgeneralize an entire continent tells me it is YOU that is not too bright and a bit simple minded!

Grow up, his name is Obama. Your information about the USA is incorrect. And perhaps your man Romney is going to bring jobs back….even maybe the same jobs he stole while at Bain….and bring them back here, right?

The Tea Baggers and their candidate, Romney, LOST the election. The Tea Baggers continue to gripe. Typical Tea Baggers … in my opinion.
