Well, bless their sweet little European hearts! They just love our Kenyan-Muslim-Marxist in Europe. How special. How about one of the countries — or all of them — who love him so much take him and keep him for the rest of his miserable life. Plus you can let your taxpayers fund him and his high living ways and his mansions on the sunny Mediterranean islands.

Another good reason to vote against him.......Europeans are motivated above all by envy. They know Obama will drag the country down to their deadbeat, GIMME level. Germany aside, none of their young people can find work: why should the USA be any better?

[2001convSVT]

The Europeans can have him, make him there 1st president, with one proviso, they have to keep him and he is not allowed on North American soil ever again!

***EVERYTHING*** for the future of America, depends upon next Tuesday.

You can fool ALL the people some of the time, even Freepers.

Seriously, I cannot believe that so many of you actually take this article seriously. Do you really think that via Reuters, that this is accurate, or scientific?

90% of folks can’t agree on ANYTHING. Don’t give me this load of crap that 90% of folks in Europe are fans of Obama. I’m from Europe, and if anyone would bother to check, many European countries have voted in conservative governments over the last decade, after YEARS of socialism.

Rant, off....

[Little Ray]

Not a big surprise. That is why they’re Euroweenies.

When the EU collapses and ANOTHER general European war starts, I say we sell arms to both sides and eat popcorn...

[Cronos]

that's a slimy Reuters headline that says "90% of Europeans" and then the actual text says "More than 90 percent of northern European" -- big difference -- and it goes on to say "The survey questioned a total of about 7500 people in Britain, Germany, France, Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Norway."

--> only these countries are "Europe"?

[Cronos]

Which is why we should have abandoned Europe to the Soviet Union after WWII

Actually FDR did abandon central and eastern Europe to Stalin. And those countries are now the most pro-US....

[Cronos]

"Would have surrendered to the Soviets in a heartbeat had the US not had military there."

sigh... read about 1920 the Battle of Warsaw, then the Warsaw Uprising when the Poles tried to get their capital city freed by their own efforts before the Soviets came.

So, no, they didn't surrender but were abandoned by FDR

[Cronos]

among voters in Europe who would elect Hitler

hmm...the Nazis never won the elections outright -- in 1930 in the German Federal Election the Nazis won 18% of the vote -- yes, only 18%

in 1932 after the great depression struck the Nazis still won only 38% in July and then in November when elections were held again, the NAzis lost votes getting only 34% of the votes

even in 1933 when they suppressed other parties they still won only 44% of the votes

And the French elected Sarkozy -- half hungarian, quarter Greek-Jewish.

And blacks were never a large number in Europe, but the 27th Prime Minister of Italy was Jewish and the 31st Prime Minister of Italy Luigi Luzzatti was also Jewish, so yeah even the Western Europeans have had some election of the other

But this northern european "poll" is a sham -- after all the current President of the USA will of course be better known than his opponent
