HANOI, Aug 27 (AFP) - The question of whether presidential candidate John Kerry was a coward or a leader during the Vietnam War might be raging in the United States, but on the streets of Hanoi people hope for just one result from the American election -- the exit of George W. Bush.

"I've read a few things in the newspapers about the presidential campaign in the US but I don't care much. Bush is barbarous," a 78-year-old retiree, who did not want to give his name, told AFP.

The mere mention of the former Texas oilman visibly rattles a souvenir saleswoman in central Hanoi but Kerry, who possibly killed Vietnamese nationals during his service in the war, seems not to matter.

"Bush is a crazy man," she said. "We hate him. Believe me, no one in Vietnam likes him.

How is it that over 60% of Americans still seem to think that Bush is a nice laid back type of guy that they'd like to have a beer with? The rest of the WORLD can't fucking stand him. They can't all be wrong.
