America ranks 3rd in liking America

Seriously. A higher percentage of both Japanese and Kenyans like America, versus only 79% of Americans who have a favorable view of the the Red, White and Blue?

In a word – leave!

According to the Pew Global Attitudes Project, seventy-nine percent of Americans in 2011 had a favorable view of Americans. That makes the United States rank third out of twenty-three countries ranked in that category. Japan ranks first, with eight-five percent of Japanese having a favorable view of the United States.

In 2010, the United States ranked second (Kenya was first), with 86% of Americans having a favorable view of the United States.
