The protests are aimed at the Argentine government, not the US. When the target is outside Argentina, it's usually the IMF. I haven't seen much in the way of anti-US signage or graffiti. That said, everybody sees the IMF as the hand of the United States, and Bush is strongly disliked. Many people tell us that "lots of people here don't like the United States - although I do."
People don't presume that US citizens support the current American government. I think they understand what it's like to have a government that doesn't represent their viewpoint.
Clinton appears to have been very popular. As a woman I work with told me: "everybody here is Democrat." People ask me what Clinton is doing now and how his wife is doing.
