Isn't this the best time for tourism in the USA?

Considering our dollar is at a weak point you would think tourists would want to flock to the USA to spend their Pounds, Euros and now Canadian dollars to stay at many of our fine resorts and cities. To the contrary though tourism in the USA has hit a snag since 9/11 and is continuing to get worse. Has our reputation been the reason for this?

It's harder for foreign travelers to get into the country since 9/11. That doesn't mean they've stopped; I live on Interstate 10, which is the southern-most east-west freeway, and I am constantly seeing Canadian license plates. We also get non-English (or Spanish)-speaking tourists all the time. There may be fewer of them, but if they're willing to go through the added red tape since 9/11 to enter the country legally, then they do.

I have no statistics in front of me, but since you do not cite any I will respond anecdotally. Since, 9/11 I have traveled to Alaska, California, Arizona, Nevada, Washington State, Florida and New York. I found no shortage of tourists from many Asian countries like China, Korea and Japan to European countries such as Denmark, Germany and Sweden. If you think tourists from all over the world are not flocking to Las Vegas, Orlando or Washington D.C. you should come have a look for yourself.
