Give me a break. The guy is NOT the president and there aren't too many German's that will vote for him.
Isn't that the same place Hitler gave his speech?

Great speech Bought tears to my eyes McCain should have never dared him to go to Iraq. Kinda reminiscent of George Bush's "bring it on " plea to Al-Qaeda. If McCain wants more press coverage then stop all those private fundraisings.

The popular German bands that were playing before the speech may have helped....

And he sounded like Reagan.....

I think if the Lord was going to help this country, the past 8 years would have been a good time to step in.:)

Lord help this country if Obama DOESN'T win!!! If McCain becomes President you can kiss this nation good-bye because he will destroy what little is left after 8 years of Bush tearing this country and its good name, down!
You are a hateful person who only sees hate. John F. Kennedy also gave a speech there. So did Reagan. So did Clinton. You liken them to Hitler, too?
Why don't you do some research into Obama's positions and his history and you just might find something wonderful beneath his skin color that you seem to hate so much. Or are you that blind?

He's obviously not campaigning to the Germans to vote for him...he's campaigning on a global scale to us in the US. He's showing that foreign policy, and more specifically, repairing our image worldwide, will be one of the pillars of his presidency, should we vote for him. He also wanted to show his critics that he can be presidential and will represent us well in the world.

We all need to think bigger, as he said in his speech. We can't isolate ourselves these days, there's way too much at stake --terrorism, global warming, declining middle class, etc....

Maybe his speech should have been in German. Didn't he just say he was embarrassed that Americans could not speak other languages when visiting foreign countries? He and his wife seem to be embarrassed about our country often....

We'll look more like Denmark then the USA.

I think it would do McCAIN to hold a speech in the same place and see what kind of crowed McCain gets. He can bring Georgey Peorgey and "shooter" Cheney with him that will at least draw some demonstrators.

If "repairing our image" with the world is going to be a pillar of his Presidency, then WE ARE ALL SCREWED.

What other countries think of us (our image) is pretty darn low on the priority list if you ask me.

Check your history there chief. JFK, RWR gave speaches at the Berlin Wall not at Hitler's victory tower. Hitler gave speaches there. Kind of puts it in perspective, huh? BTW, BHO could not carry either's jockstrap. He is a joke and the rest of the world is laughing at you.

He also said he was not there as a presidential candidate....Ummmm, yea, sure we believe that. 3 measly years as a junior senator and extremely unlimited foreign travel. I would like to see his passport.
