The problem everyone is complaining about is not the crux of the.. Obama is not looking at NZ, Australia, or any other location and say, hey, lets get the same crappy service there.. what he is looking at is the network deployment with population densities similar to locations within (and in the case of some countries) as the US. Though the article mentions specifically some countries, I am sure he is also looking at other countries with faster connections (ie: Japan) to get a complete picture.
Lets all not get the guns because 1 article mentions someone is looking at the rest of the world. Given the US has been in a semi-Xenophobic stance for a number of years.. having someone that is looking at what the world is doing (both the good and the bad) so we DON'T make the same mistakes or emulate what actually works is a great thing.
