Well when Obama became elected Swedes opinion of Americans has improved but previous to that we really didn't like Americans. Our hate for America really originated from the Vietnam War, Swedens prime minister even called Americans and I quote "Satans killers". After a while our vision kind of improved until you selected Bush for the second time, when we heard you believed Afghanistan was a greater threat than the climate change we thought you were morons. Especially after how Bush f-ed up the economy.
