President and CFO of Pepsi Co, Indra Nooyi, seems to have that same old "Hate America First" attitude. She basically "gave the finger" to all hard working God fearing Americans that do so much to bring good to our entire world (See complete speech here…). Sure there are some bad eggs from the US that do harm in the world but if you balance all that good that has been done, the scales would come out weighted heavily towards the good.
1. Personal giving for charity and world relief is highest for Americans especially religious one. (see reference)
2. Democracy is breaking out all over the world.
3. Women’s rights to vote and to own property are expanding throughout the world.
4. Health missions are supported all over the world by Americans.
5. Freedom in Afghanistan and Iraq.
I could go on and on and on. The point is, the "Hate America First" crowd chooses to see the few bad eggs and chooses to dismiss all the great stuff that America does.

About waynem
As a Minnesota based photographer and artist I have been greatly influenced by the Upper Midwest. I focus my skills and energies on portraits, landscapes, cityscapes, architectural and fine art work.
My best work comes from images first painted in my mind. I mull over a prospective image for weeks or months, seeing it from different angles and perspectives, then finally deciding what to capture. The result is images that deeply touch people's emotions and powerfully evoke memories and dreams.
My images are used commercially by companies and organizations ranging from Financial Services firms, mom and pop Ice Cream shops and The Basilica of St Mary to communicate their shared vision and values. Book and magazine publishers have featured my images on their covers. My photographs also grace and enhance the decor of many fine homes.
You said it well. Do you think Americans will be willing to boycott Pepsi there zillions of affiliates to make a point? I doubt it, but I hope so.
Thanks Layla,
My wife, a huge pepsi fan, is no longer drinking pepsi. Maybe many others will follow….
Thanks for checking in.

Hey Wayne, maybe both of you could boycott HoHos and KFC while you’re at it? Might cut down a little on the obesity epidemic our country is suffering from.
I think a little personal disciple would help on the obesity epidemic that our country is suffering from. Believe it or not you can actually have a little KFC once in awhile and still live a very healthy life.
