“I know that promises of partnership have gone unfulfilled in the past,” Obama said.

He just can't trash America enough. Why should Brazil or any other nation believe him? Does anyone in Iran believe him? Do Egyptians still think he means well? Obama is all about image. He can't stop campaigning. When is he going to lead?

Obama visits to Brazil,Chile and El salvador is good.

He is doing much better than others,in promoting better ties between USA and Rest of world.

Solving multilingual/muticultural world problems the right way,is not easy.

Many nations and their people,do not speak/read english,this is main problem in US people and rest of world friendship.

When he arrives, please keep him. We don't want him back. He is trying to find friendly faces.

His two-day visit to Brazil will focus on business.

This is great. My company views Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and Chile as areas that represent major growth opportunities. We've got an Uruguayan on staff who speaks fluent Portuguese in addition to English and her native Spanish.

Anything we can be doing to improve relations is a good thing. I wish President Obama a successful trip. It's too bad he has to apologize for the many haters in the US, past and present.

I wish he could also stop by Venezuela, how can he skip Chavez and go to EL Salvador? I am sure if they sat down and had a nice cold beer, like that one Ivy league professor and the police man last year, all of those evil communist ideas of Chavez and those other evil ideas of the American imperialist capitalist stuff would just vanish and we would get cheaper oil from Chavez and the US needs oil and cheap right?

You just know President Obama would like nothing better than to hang out with his pal Hugo for a few days. I bet those nagging advisors for his re-election campaign are keeping him from spending some quality face time with his best buddy in Venezuela. I hear Obama is looking for some good Leftist reading to snap him out of hell he had to endure by being talked into carrying a book about President Reagan around for two weeks as a ploy to convince people he isn't a socialist. Come on President Obama, point Air Force One to Caracas and commune with your soul mate!

Haha, do you know that the trip is costing US$200 million a day?!

(Wouldn't it be funny if I'm cited as a source in talk radio? I'm a reputable journalist, y'know.)
