This is a negative picture of America as it shows the growing obesity problem, the fact that they are both children makes this image quite sad as it they may have health problems later in life due to there weight which is now a growing problem. They are eating large meals which reinforces just how bad a problem it is becoming as usually children would get a smaller meal. As they are eating McDonald's this shows that America is part of a consumer society.
To me this promotes a positive image of America as it shows how proud people are to be American. As everyone in the picture is smiling and holding an American flag shows that they are glad to be a part of that culture. The fact that the woman in the foreground is hiding half of her face by the flag shows to me that she feels as though she has something to hide behind, that she feels safe in America and it will protect her.
