    At least we're number 1 at something...hehehe,

    By Rick Newman | The Exchange – 10

    Who loves ya, baby? If you’re the United States of America, the answer is fewer and fewer people around the world.

    In Britain, France, Germany and nearly a dozen other prominent nations, the percentage of people with a favorable view of the United States has declined over the last decade, according to a new global survey by the Pew Research Center. That trend has been apparent since the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq, which was highly unpopular in many countries. The 2008 financial meltdown marked another slip in America’s reputation, as many people blamed Wall Street for a global recession that still weighs on the world economy. Controversial drone strikes aimed at terrorists and childish political antics in Washington continue to mar America’s image abroad.

    Some nations still have a soft spot for the U.S., however. Of 39 nations where Pew conducted surveys, here are the 10 where people have the most favorable impression of the U.S.

    1. Philippines (percentage with a favorable view of the United States: 85%)
    2. Israel (83%)
    3. Ghana (83%)
    4. Senegal (81%)
    5. Kenya (81%)
    6. El Salvador (79%)
    7. South Korea (78%)
    8. Italy (76%)
    9. Uganda (73%)
    10. Brazil (73%)

    America’s popularity in the Philippines suggests Uncle Sam isn’t the exploitative quasicolonial power some critics claim it is. There's been a strong history of military and economic cooperation between the two nations since the Philippines became independent in 1946, including substantial U.S. aid to the archipelago. The Philippines also has territorial disputes with China, which could bind it even more closely to the United States.

    Gawin na kasing 51st State ng USA ang Pilipinas....

    Malamang magka-snow na rin dito....

    Kapag nangyari iyan,- mga Pinoy punta ng mainland... Mga mainland,- punta ng Pilipinas (mainit e)....

    Ang takot nga lang ng US, baka sa State of the Philippines ang susunod na maging Presidente nila (assuming natural born sa US).... (With 100M population; US just passed 300M two years ago? - ilan kaya ang ating electoral votes?).....

    Kahit yang mga aktibista na yan, mahal na mahal nila ang Amerika. Bigyan lang nila ng Visa, lipad na yung mga yan sa Washington; dun daw sila mag "rally-rallyhan" kuno.

    Kapag nagkaganon bro.,- pag bumiyahe ang Presidente ng Amerika,- hindi bagahe ang dala,- puro balikbayan boxes....

    Tapos hirap na hirap lumipad ang Airforce One, dahil paniguradong overweight ang mga bagahe (ipagkakasya lahat sa eroplano) para sa mga pasalubong...

    Tapos ang White House,- bahay bakasyunan ng mga kamag-anak na galing sa Pilipinas....

    Sige na nga,- 51st State Na Tayo!

    I wouldn't want to be under the US govt because it means I'll have to be subject to the police and surveillance state.
    Damn, son! Where'd you find this?

    This thread was made almost a decade ago and I think these numbers are still true or even higher

    I just noticed that almost EVERY US brand (especially food) that opens here in the PH, blockbuster with Filipinos! I love the US too, but lining up the whole day for an American food chain is too much.
