>>But I'm curious about William's view. Based on things he's said before, he has major issues with what he considers socialism, so I'd think that most of Europe (which, I think, he would consider socialist) would be off-limits. He also feels strongly about personal freedoms, so that would seem to rule out a lot of places. I'm really curious what he's thinking about this.

The animosity isn't toward the administration itself - it's towards they socialist policies.
