and san francisco and chicago i did find one person in denmark who had spent one year abroad and richmond, va., when he was in high school. that was an exceptional experience. they have a view of the american political parties as more extreme than they really are. there was a tendency to associate barack obama with what they perceived to be labor- oriented or liberal policies in the european context and to almost associate the american republican party as being far right wing, certainly much further to the right than the conservative party. in britain. this goes back to the first point about seeing our system more unified than it really is. it comes up later on and you see that there is some anger currently right now with barack obama because of this. of course, this was very naive and interesting that obamas election solved american race problems. the reason that europeans were so interested in obama in particular is exactly because -- we had a conversation before -- that was certainly the most important component but there were just as impressed that we would pick somebody cool, frankly
