Hard to make a distinction between an Israeli citizen and an American, because there's a lot of dual citizens.

 

Also, I'm impressed that you can determine that the person reading the non-English newspaper in Indonesia looks like an American based on their feet and hands.

 

Also also, if you lined native Australians and Americans in a row and took a photo could you tell the difference?

 

Also also also, part of the fun of these pics is that they suggest that there is a certain amount of an international youth culture that will hopefully bring about more understanding, etc.

It's pretty easy once you realize they are wearing Wranglers.

You didn't show the pic of the troops in Afghanistan sitting in a half-empty room, staring blankly at the screen.

It will be nice to have a president that is popular abroad for a change. America's standing in the world jumped exponentially overnight.

 

Interesting to see these celebrations is countries that would never DREAM of electing someone from one of their ethnic minorities to the superem executive position. Once again, America points the way.

Yes. Obama has an opportunity to not only lead America, but much of the world. His election really does put our best foot forward and highlights the good things about us.
