We Europeans loves O because he showned respect to us, he do not talk only about war, bomb and bomb. We are tired of wartalk. We want peaceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Love Gladis

Film the Obama speech in black and white and you will not see any difference from a speech given in the same place from 1933.

Yes indeed, Obama is campaigning abroad! Political expediency is Obama's only game!

The arrogant, egomanic with an overwhelming lust for power is working the Berliners now!

I am ashamed of the whole Obama media myth! I don't think America will roll the dice for this guy!

Former Democrat for McCain 08!

Jr wrote that "[Obama] should give some serious thought about running for president of the European Union." Buddy, one doesn't run for President of the EU. Heads of states of EU member countries take turn runing the Union. Obama is runing for President of the US, and will help restore a positive image of the american persona.

Well, we had the dot.com bubble, the housing bubble, so it's
about time that we have the presidential election bubble, aka
the Obama campaign.

If this bubble collapses before November then Obama is toasted.
So pull out a chair, sit back and enjoy the show.

Hmm, when was the last time we saw huge fawning crowds gather in Berlin to hear an awe-inspriing, great orator speak? Hmm, when was that? It seems to me, the word schatzie comes to mind, but I'm sure that's not it, sweetie.

PaulC, I don't need to "get a grip." I know what's going on and exactly what's wrong with Obama. It's true Obama is a Socialist. Just look at how he wants to raise taxes on the rich only to benefit those too lazy to work. If such a progressive tax scheme isn't Socialism, I don't know what is. Not to mention doubling capital gains taxes which will only further stagnate investments (revenue goes DOWN when the tax rate is increased).

Penalizing success is not the American way. Anyone supporting Obama is a Socialist. Stealing from those who work to give money/handouts to those who don't care enough about their own lives to get a job is at the heart of Socialism.

The American Dream is that the sky's the limit if you put your mind to it and *WORK* for it. It is *NOT* "what can my government steal from those who work and give to me"…

ok, Obama is the substence. You know what makes him so great? Mccain cant do anything but tear the man down and bring out all of his negatives, when obama disagrees with any one he runs against he just attacks policies. the Lord doesn't like it when we break eachother down, so take that for what its worth. in the end, mccain will get his for being so evil hearted towards obama:"obama would rather win a campaign and lose a war" thats like saying he doesnt care about people's lives. Mccain rode ina plane and got shot down, where is his substence? he was in washington for 25yrs, how well has that worked out?

Ich bin ein Berliner not the JFK Speech

(I am a Berliner)

Ich bin ein Anfänger

(I am a beginner)

NOBAMA

It's so great to see Obama in this setting. Already the world is awaiting his Inauguration. Already, the citizens of the world are rallying for CHANGE!

I heard his speech.

It is a shame that he had to use the race card. Again.

I find it interesting that the Germans had 2 FREE concerts by popular artist at that spot right before Obama gave his speech. I wonder if anyone would have showed up if there would have been NO concerts ??? But the media didn't tell you that.

It is kind of like his speech in Portland with 70,000 poeple and the FREE concert that was given before his speech there. And the media didn't tell you about that one either.

With Obama trying to give the German people in Berlin a history lesson why they are able to exitist today is beyond me. Hey may of them lived it.

To not so important'

WHY JFK is so important is that YOU would not be living Here today without him. Read a history book, talk to someone who is older than you, read before you say something so stupid again!!!

eva perons world tour during the 1930s.. obama on his world tour 2008.. my goodness toto, i dont think we are in america anymore,, wake up and think america,see history repeat,, a demogauge as president , the saviour of humanity,, please. george orwell could not write a story this bizarre if he tried,, the king is dead , long live obama.
to save my soul , i am writing in hillary,, i think after this world wide admiration, adoration, annointing of the second coming. i hope you will also,,,, hillary 2008

Mccain whinned and whinned that Obama had not gone everseas. Obama is now in overseas and
1. The overseas loved Obama
2. They see in him the man who will bring new world order
3. They see a man who is direct opposite of what Bush and Mccain stand for.
4. They now know that americans can be loved after all for this is a man who was not slapping people around like Bush.
Obama is good, articulate, young, vibrant, engaging, inspirational and straight forward. John Mccain have now seen for himself. Any question?

Folks: Obama is not Hitler. McCain is not Hitler. Barr is not Hitler, Nader is not Hitler.
These old, tired tropes make the people that utter them to be foolishly partisan wolf-criers. Please, stop comparing people to murderous dictators. The world has actual men in Zimbabwe and Sudan that fill these roles quite well, thank you.

McCain today - the surge succeeded. Wow - wish he had said that before (and before and before and before and before and before and before and before …………………………………………… )

Greg…Get a grip. You need to go back on your meds.
Republicans can rant and demean but the rest of the world knows that the U.S. has become overbearing and arrogant. If we had cause it would be understandable but we believed our own press that we were the only superpower when in actuality we because the only superdebtor.

The rest of the world tried to tell us that the invasion of Iraq was a mistake but we had watched too many Rambo and John Wayne movies and fell pray to our own delusions.
It would be the same if you ran your car through a store front …jammed a sheet of plywood over the hole and said "now it's better".

the speech was fantastic,, go obama,, you are doin the right thing by wantin better relationships with other countries,, what beter way to make a better change,, unlike mccain who is followin bush,,,, mccain is history,, go obama!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All I see is Our Tax money being used for Obamas election

McCain just mispronounced sausage. What a joke!!!!!! Shausage anyone?

Term of the Day:
PLAYER HATER n. One who is jealous of another person's position, wealth, success,or in this case a McCain supporter.
Obama is the man in 08!

OMG America America.

When was the last time you saw a candidate for President of the United States greeting like this. All those people that are not even Americans lined up to see Obama. That lets you know that this world is tired of the fighting and all they needed was one American Politician that they could believe in. One Politician that they trust. The world is looking for somebody to come from our great country and actually stand on there word and mean what they say. They found that person in Obama and the rest of us need to realize that this world is ready for a change also. Im glad to be a part of this history Barack is making. Keep up the good fight Obama.

Obama 08/12!

IT WAS MADE CLEAR TODAY THAT THE WORLD EXPECTS

AMERICA TO CLAIM & RETAIN HER GLOBAL POSITION.

ALSO OUR PRESIDENT TO BE OBAMA, WILL BE THE

FIRST GLOBAL PRESIDENT. WE WILL HAVE OUR ECONOMY,

HONOR, RESPECT & POSITION IN THE WORLD RESTORED.

IT WON'T BE EASY. IT WON'T BE QUICK. BUT WE CAN DO IT.

What an idiot speech. I am ashamed that Americans are supporting this dud. What a joke. He needs to be home tending to business here. Berliners dont give a hoot about Obama. Did they give money for attendance?

It's interesting that I hear nothing from McCain and republican voters about how bad Obama is. Example: "He has no foreign policy experience" yet, the world would be prefer to work with obama and support his foreign policy ideas. I have yet to hear a reason why anyone should vote FOR McCain, rather than AGAINST Obama. I'm tired of republicans telling the world what's wrong instead of giving us ways to make things right. I'm not a Dem because I'm "brainwashed" or "a cultist", I'm a Dem because they have a plan to make things right. Republicans should listen to their parents. If they don't have anything good to say, shut up.

You people with capital letters amuse me. Obama would be great for our country. You all come off as bigots to me (every time I read something terribly ignorant, it is always written from texas trail dog). If you know anything about the history of Germany, Berliners typically didn't support Hitler….just as I have never supported Bush. Not everyone falls inline with very misguided leaders. Obama has proven he has better judgment than anyone currently leading in Washington, and better than McCain who will only follow those terribly misguided ideals currently in place.

CNN…where's my comment????????????

To the bible quoter - thou shall not bear false witness !!!!!!

What a bunch of wusses - you all are afraid of peace and harmony.

You're haters.

YES!! OBAMA '08!!!!!!

Dear Not Important…
Learn your history…JFK did not start the Viet Nam War…

one nation under god!!!! I deal in facts too, thweetie

Great, now people are comparing Obama to Hitler? The stupidity of some people is breathtaking. If you don't like the coverage of Obama, don't watch it. That's the approach I've taken to Bush. For the Hillnuts, keep it up, cost Obama the election. We'll take the same approach when your heroine runs in four years.

He has an "entourage" now? The world submission tour continues…

McCain could never pull those numbers!

They would think he is Bush and throw tomatos!

"Henry in New York"

Brilliant, deductive arguments! Now if only those forty percent of voters you speak of would be honest with themselves and realize their only hurting themselves

Griff - I have German friends - they HATE HITLER the same as everyone else.

If America is to have a positive future, Barack Obama MUST be defeated!

Socialism is Un-American!! Barack Obama is a Socialist!! A vote for Barack Obama is Un-American!!

IT LOOKS LIKE VICTORY!!!( YES OBAMA CAN)!!!!

No Michelle - it was all for Barack

Believe what you want kim i deal in facts.facts hunny.

Dear Phil,

Obama is the greatest thing since slice bread for the following reasons:

He's for one America
He wants ideas from Dems, Repubs and Indys
He can not be boxed in a corner or a category
He respects all people, including you
He will respect the office and not have an affair
He wants to change the economy and understands our frustrations
He wants this country to live up to it's true meaning
He won't lie to start a war and kill Americans for no reason
He wants peace in the world

Let me know if you need more reasons, I can go on.

Hail the new Messiah. Hail the new King of the World.

God have mercy on America.

this coming world leader will rise to power on a wave of global euphoria as he arrives on the scene to temporarily save the world from its desperate economic, military and political woes. Like Satan himself, who frequently appears as an angel of light, this man will deceive most of the world into thinking that he is a great man of peace, a hero. The prophet Daniel wrote of the Antichrist, "By peace he shall destroy many," and "he shall come in peaceably and obtain the kingdom by flatteries" (Daniel 8:25; 11:21).

LEST PEOPLE FORGET HITLERS PARTY WAS VOTED BY THE PEOPLE IN GERMANY HITLERS NATIONAL SOCIALIST PARTY HAD MORE SEATS IN THEIR PARLIAMENT SO HITLER BECAME CHANCELLOR SO WE CAN SEE THE GERMANS GETTING SUCKED IN BY ANOTHER MESSIAH. PLEASE IF I HEAR EMPTY SUIT OBAMA COMPARED TO JFK I AM GOING TO VOMIT JFK WAS IN THE HOUSE 6 YEARS AND IN THE SENATE BEFORE HE RAN FOR PRESIDENT

YES IT REALLY SAYS SOMETHING. IT ONLY MAKES US OPPONENTS OF OBAMA MORE DETERMINED THAN EVER TO INSURE HE NEVER REACHES THE WHITE HOUSE. READ IT OBEMBIE BACKERS OBAMA WILL NEVER BE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. EVEN IF HE DOES GAIN THE OVAL OFFICE HE WILL NEVER BE THE FAVORITE OF THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE IN THE U.S.

Since his speech started the dow has dropped 70 points.

H says:
I THINK IT IS DISGUESTING ALL THE COVERAGE OF OBAMA. HE IS NOT MY PRESIDENT AND WILL NEVER BE.

Herber Walker is that you?

All of our forefathers came to america because of the failings of europe and europeans.Does he think we are gonna care what europe thinks of us.If elected its revolution time and youll need more then empty fuzzy feelings and a leftist politcal blog to save your socialist leaders and views.Judgement day is comming dems dont get caught on the other side of the river when the dam breaks cause you wont be able to get back

Listening to Borack Obama in Germany, is just like the rerun's of Adolph Hitler, as he was in 1938. 70yrs ago… No doubt Germany will be showing those same reruns, after this Idiot has gone..

Is it true that there was a CONCERT in Berlin to draw a crowd?

Phil - if you make more than a qua\rter of a million a year, he will tax you more.

If you make less than a quarter of a million a year, your taxes will be lowered.

Get your brain to work

I saw this picture taken about 60 years ago when the third reich walked the same path. Obama can't be trusted such as Hitler was, say one thing to please the crowd and turn around and do something different. Mein Kaump Obama

I love it that people keep bringing up the fact that Germany has supported the Kaiser and Fuhrer thing. Well perhaps if you looked back you might see why. When Hitler took power Germany was in what was probably THE WORST economic state that it had ever seen poverty ran throughout the country like wildfire and then along came a young energetic radical calling for change and promising to give Germany back "what was rightfully hers". It's easy to understand why the German people as a whole got swept up by Hitler. And what does all of that sound vaguely like? Maybe American history??? Right after the stock market crashed…anyone???

Adam - Your post is a little delusional if you think that McCain has no more expereince then Hillary or Obama. No one has expereince in the position of the presidency until they are elected, yes that's true. But just as a tradesman begins his career first as an apprentice, then moves onto journeyman, and then onto master, so do we, the real people judge thier experience and readiness. It's all in the preparation towards that highest office goal that counts. Based on current lifetime achievements, experience and readiness the three rank this way.

McCain / Clinton = Masters
Obama = Apprentice

Maybe you need to get off of that diet of pablum and strained peas because believing everything that a novice politician tells you does not make it so.

Next week $25.00 more to help the Obama cause. The Obama cause is the American cause. The American cause is to be a leader in the free world but we need a true leader.

Its not just Obama, the World is celebrating the end of Bush era.

The europeans would hear anything that comes out this guys mouth. I hope they don't think too much of it or think we Americans think alike, to the contrary, his missguided ideas and views of this world could cause to our country.
Well, election is not here yet so maybe we don't have to worry about him wining anything because he WON'T.

Everyone into the Mosh Pit…come tear it up at Obamafest.. Next on stage will be Slipknot followed by Metallica…

Senator Obama, I am so proud of you. The whole world respect you and because of you, they are ready to love America again. May God continue to bless you Barack. I can not wait to hear your speech in Berlin, Germany.
Go Obama!

Obama '08

> Once he starts talking they'll realize he's all talk and no substance.

Once again the stupidity of Americans continues to amaze. Please continue to watch American Idol and NASCAR while your empire continues to crumble around you. Oh look, Abu Dhabi just purchased the Chrysler Building and some Belgian just brought Budweiser corporation.

Obama can be a "messiah" any day /he has already given us HOPE /Change for our future / a future we sure never had with Bush and will never have with Bush/ McWar the two war machines .
We know we will have a change for the better with Obama .
People all over the world love Obama look at the polls and see where that lousey McWar stands "i mean where he lays it is nap time for McWar

Yesterday I counted all the coverage CNN had on McWar which was rerun of his lies / BS thats not news by any stretch .
CNN ARE YOU HOPING YOU CAN make this old fool look good when infact you are DEAD WRONG and so is McWar.

CNN give the space to Obama he is the NEXT PRESIDENT 08/12
OBAMA IS THE NEWS

Bravo, "Henry n New York", well said.

Obama's extreme popularity overseas would almost immediately reverse America's negative image in the world. McCain would only add to it.

This really says something.

Obama '08

They recognize a true leader. Yea!!!!

Glenn Beck is an idiot.

i never thought i would see so many american flags being waved after Bush. This man is our only hope for this nation.

lol what a dud of a speech. good god what point is he trying to make.All you libs are gettin the vapors over this.You are pathetic.

May I first address this to Kenneth M. (1)' America' does not stand on this planet alone-WE do need co-operation of other nations (2) We're looking at a long process of gaining back the RESPECT that has been lost during the last 8 years…starting with the 2000 election, THE WORLD WAS WATCHING (and look what transpired behind it)-Iraq War (3) We will become a better America, because of President Obama. He is the vision of HOPE, with everything that America has to overcome at this given time.
Let us all pray for his success…We all will benefit !

"I AM SO TIRED OF PEOPLE WHO CAN'T MAKE A CASE AGAINST SEN. OBAMA OTHER THAN JUST ATTACK……..ATTACK AND DEMEAN!"

Umm, I am so tired of people who support Obama like he is the next coming, but cannot give a reason for doing so other than, he is about change, he will tax the rich, the world loves him. How about Obama supporters actually give some substance as to why he is the greatest thing since sliced bread. He has no real platform. All he does is deliver charimatic speeches that amount to nothing. Change this, change that…sounds like the familiar Democratic rally. I can guarantee one change…more taxes. I am not saying that McCain is my first choice, but by far, he is much more experienced candidate and his ideas are much more sound. I could care a less if Europe likes my President. As someone else said, if they don't like our President, typically that means we are doing something right.

This is a defiing moment in our American History, it's clear it's necessary for this moment to happen, Obama is a intelligent and clearly articulate leader..we all know that, to be black in American you have to be more then just …and he is. If he was less then just…would this day had come? I think not. Nobody gave him nothing that he didn't earn, whether you like him or not. This is the American way, this is the American dream, if not, then is it a lie? Not taking away from McCain, he endured for this great country, but what does that have to do with him being a effective president? We have honored McCain then and now. But the reality is his train has come and gone.

To NOTFALLINGINLINE.org. Hey are you Bush supporters? I thought he was a party animal at Yale and was a postgraduate drinker. Did those qualifications impress you? He used his connections to get in USAF Reserves; took flight lessons and went AWOL. No chip off the old block is he; unlike his father who after being shot down chose to rejoin his unit. His experience was being given oil companies to manage and bring them into bankrupcy or be saved by the Arab friends of his family. He used his experince' to become Texas govenor; but the Dems ran the show. He ordered the invasion of Afganistan then quit that war before it was won; he then invaded Iraq after misleading the American public and declared victory 4 years ago-but forgot to bring the troops home. The same war McBush supported with all his experience-the same experience he gained being a member of the Keating5-oh yeah your guys a campaign reformer w/ a personal private jet exception written in his law. Thats the party of experience. Wall Street excess; bailouts; 4.00 gas; layoffs; estate tax exemptions for the super wealthy-like his wife. And foreign policy expertise but who just cannot seem to ever get it right w/o his human teleprompter battling Joe Lieberman.

FAke obama. Fake speech. Fake, fake,fake. Wake up America. EEEEYYYYY PUMA.

Pay close attention to this speech dems .This is where you can point to your boys demise.

Jason
your question to CNN as to why is there not a special called being white in america?

Are you serious? If you would have looked at the program you would see it was not blaming whites for the struggles of black people, it was showing the struggles of black people in different scernario's. Actually you don't want them to do a special on being white in america, because based on the stat's, white people are fairing better than blacks because you all have been given the advantage whereas we as black people have to work a harder. We have had to struggle, but we have not stop fighting.

Now I'm as happy as a little guurrrlll

The audacity of the arrogant..

PUMA you got my vote. This guy is a real piece of work, so is the media.

I do not believe CNNs poll on latinos and their all of a sudden love for Obama. CNN you are a piece of work also.

Vote McCain or stay home or write in Hillary's name, but NO OBAMA

Obama is acting like he is already the President in Europe - what a trip!! Whe cares what Europe wants - its what the US wants that matters. 18 Million people do not want Obama. I am one of those 18 million.

Once he starts talking they'll realize he's all talk and no substance.

Obamafest huh?

I don't recall that being Obama's choice of words… who came up with that title? Oh that's right… people with a gripe.

Hey - McShame went to Canada and Columbia to give away our jobs. He wasn't well-received either place.

I challenge McWarmonger to take a European tour so we can watch the throngs follow him

I CHALLENGE HIM - or is he chicken?

Europe for Obama!!

Please do the right thing America…for once! The last 8 years have been hell for everybody!

"McCain whined for months that Obama had not been overseas….

Be careful what you wish for…."

———————————————————————————————–

Best post I've seen in years!

Of course, McCain wanted to "take" Obama to iraq and show him around like a puppy. Instead, here's Obama showing the world he doesn't need help - and the U.S. doesn't need McCain. Take that, old man!

We need our allies, especially now as we struggle in so many ways.
Adam stole my comments, so I'll jump out now.
Senator Obama is getting ready to speak now.

Can the PUMAs understand what is going on in US and the World??
Please PUMAs, try to become really American. Obama 2008 & 2012

How refreshing to see Obama meeting the German leader (Merkel) and not rubbing her back and acting like a frat boy. This is our chance to gain the world's respect and admiration–we need these people as allies——go Obama and shut up jealous Republican pundits.

Obama, if your going to be our President then take a real hard look at what appeasement can do to the world. America stands for freedom !

I am a Afro-American, and I support Barack Obama not because he is an Afro- American, but because i truely in my heart believe there is no other candidate sincere about conquering the problems of this country. I John McCain is just as qualified, but his sincerity is in doudt.

It does not matter to me that Barack Obama is Black, Being Black, or in this case half Black is not one of the qualification for this presidency, and a Black can be just as inefficient as any one else.

Lets not vote for him because he looks like us, lets vote for him because we think he will make an honest and intelligent effort.

YES WE CAN. PLEASE VOTE FOR BARACK OBAMA. HE IS THE ONLY WHO CAN BRING US ALL TOGETHER IN USA AND AROUND THE WORLD. THANK YOU

Do Europeans really see America as going it alone on Iraq and the war on terror–or are they willing to let America go it alone to preserve their own political safety and conserve precious human and financial resources?

Will Obama have the intestinal fortitude to pursue interests Americans by majority feel are global in nature ( Al Qaida, war on terror, security in Iraq, sequestration or limiting of Iran's influence in the mid-east and proliferation of chemical/nuclear weapons) and in the whole worlds best interest?

It has taken extraordinary guts to go against the prevailing media notion–as he has.

Will Obama have the personal strength and conviction to follow suit?

Is he diplomatically savvy enough to get the Europeans on board with helping in the war against radical islamic terror cells and states who sponsor them?

My 2 cents–NO. He is totally ignorant of the big picture–and his pie in the sky advisors are to.

THE WHOLE WORLD LOVES OBAMA AND SO DO I!

OBAMA 08

Obama : a man that will change history a man that will bring us peace and unity! I voted for hillary because it was great to have the posibility of a female president but now am voting OBAMA all the way. McCain is only the second part of the bush administration.

OBAMA IS CHANGE! and its already shown. Everyone loves him even our so called enemies are willing to sit down and talk with him.
Why cant AMERICA see that he is the right choice!

LATINOS WE NEED TO VOTE FOR OBAMA!!!!!!!
STOP the racism is not about color is about what this man can give to this country !
OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama experience will get US ahead again in the world.
He is the man for the job; the best one. you get experience by doing a job with this say neither McCain or Obama have been president before so none of them have that experience. This nonsense that Obama has no experience need to stop because Mccain has none as well. United States of America for Barack Obama

Wow…the more i read about Obama's trip in Europe and how he was recieved the more I completely adore him. I just hope he comes back well..He will restore dignity back to America.

I'm watching the live video on CNN and this is just awesome. Wonder if Senator McCain could draw a crowd like this? I bet he wishes he had never counted down the days since Senator Obama has been overseas. I already know many will say that the majority of these people can't vote but just think of what having Obama as President could do for the impression that they have of America.

Its funny every country he has visited with exception of Israel,with all these cheering crowds are the same countries that either cheered or didnt shed any tears on 9/11.Kind of makes you think.But all of obamas supporters arnt known as thinkers.

Yay OBAMA!!

I'm so proud to be an american right now! Obama gives me hope in a brighter years ahead for husband in Iraq and my children's future.

THANK YOU BARACK!!!

PS - John McCain, if you're going to make the case for judgment, then you lost. How many WMD's did we find in Iraq?!?! The Pentagon released a report showing that Suddam Hussein had no relations with Al Qaeda, in fact, he was in opposition to them! My husband has been there for 4 tours because of your misjudgment!!

OBAMA for PRESIDENT 2008!!
Proud Citizen of the USA

Europeans support Obama? Another reason not to vote for him.

Nothing but more "obamahype".

After all these months, I still for the life of me don't see what people see in Obama? Where is all this charisma and charm that he exudes? I don't see it and I don't get it. To me, Obama is cold and aloof !

This has to be one of the best moment in my life time…A well respected American being respected by the world and some people can't stand it? why? Majority of the world is good honest and educated and only few give us all bad name…why can't we be proud that a fellow American is welcomed even out side USA….Why? I gues some are just used to bush being slapped around.

Watch the Obama Speech LIVE___RIGHT NOW. It is about to happen. Surf to n-tv.de and push the Obama Live button in the top right.

I'm watching it right now, and it is fascinating!!!

It is 7:12 PM in Berlin right now, so they are running a bit late, as it was supposed to happen at 6:45 PM German time.

Although it appears most of Berlin is heading to Obama's speech today, US Foreign Service personnel will be banned from the event. And they are not happy.

Typical current administration corruption

Anna—maybe

The White House told US Attorneys who to prosecute if they wanted to keep their jobs.

he da man!! i am so proud of you barack hussein obama!!!! i wish your black kenyan father and white kansan mother had lived to see this!!!!!!
little did they know they conceived our countries future first non-white prez!!! knock 'em dead!!!!

i am looking forward to your election win!!!!

YES WE CAN YES WE CAN YES WE CAN YES WE CAN!!!!!

Why doesn't Obama choose Kerry as his running mate? They can counter against the 'straight talk express' with the 'doubletalk/Flip flop express'. Did we really want someone pedaling a commodity they can't sell (hope, you can't get hope and keep it with those college educated, long winded speeches)? Can you see why the PUMA movement is growing? How is it that a man runs for President after being a senator for less than 180 days? Experience? We need that right now. Maybe McCain isn't the best choice, but he has more experience, willing to do what's right (not what's always possible, it is called fortitude, look up the senate's record to see who makes the hard choices and who makes the popular ones). Enough. Reagan/Nixon for the ticket in 2008!!!

Obamatans… it looks like you'll get your robot wish and Obama will win the election (like ANYONE could really lose to someone that wants to continue bush's policies) but mark my words… when you get your wish you will realise it was just as foolish of a wish as the one made by people who wanted to see Dubyah Bush elected.

Europe can afford to like Obama. He wants to stop the Iraq war(supposedly) so they will automatically put him above Mccain. Also, they won't have to DEAL with him running THEIR country.. all they care about is us not hitting the hornets nests with a stick anymore. If Obama is elected I will leave my beloved homeland and move to europe for that very reason.

Why don't you mention on your broadcasts that there are hundreds of thousands of American Citizens living here in Old Europe. I can say for myself that it does matter to me that Obama chose to come to Berlin where I live and vote In Berlin. Why dont you mention that indeed there are many many voting Americans and interested Europeans who care that there is this interest given to us here.

Adam—-good post using logic, bet the right wingers won't get it.

Stop hating folks…everyone complained that Obama couldn't handle foreign affairs. So, he goes to the Middle East and Europe and shows he can.

Now you complain that he is acting like he is president…..no, he is acting PRESIDENTIAL. Something the idiot in the White House should have tried out.

Of course the Germans won't be voting in a US election, but the new US president will be, hopefully, out retracing these same steps in repairing our country's position in the world theater. Our country would wither and die if it can't work well in this global economy. We NEED our allies in many different ways to prosper.

Obama should rightly be commended for his ground laying work over seas this week. I don't think McCain could've accomplished a fraction of what Obama has done.

***************************************************************************

The whole world is for Obama/Hillary for president.

I am angry that his trip is being paid by the American taxpayers. It should be paid by his campaign.

Obama is a corporate candidate at the helm of a spineless and irrelevant political party. After eight years of being raped by a fascist dictator and we only favor him by four points? What does that tell you about the ignorance of this country?

Of course they're flocking to see Obama. After all, they also elected Hitler. And we all know that Hitler promised the world and offered change. Also… as we know he definitely gave change.

Hitler in preparation of executing the monumental plans to redesign Berlin into Welthauptstadt Germania (World Capital was the name Adolf Hitler gave to the projected renewal of Berlin) part of his vision for the future of Germany the Nazis relocated the pillar to its present location, Originally the column was built to celebrate the military successes of Prussia over Denmark, and was originally positioned in front of the Reichstag. Hitler decided to move the column in 1938, and added 7.5 metres to its height while he was at it.

As a German, I - such as many other Germans - feel offended, that Barrack Obama, who is just a candidate in this election, uses German history and places for his campaign. He has nothing to do with Germany and just hopes to get some cheering Germans for the media. That's an insenstitive way of campaigning.

So many people. Go Obama. America will be #1 if he is the president. OBAMA 08. We love you.

Gag me with a big spoon!!! Just looking at the stupid brigades–marching like lemmings on hype, circumspection, and pure hope—with very little susbtance or desire for it.

Sounds like the Democratic Socialist Party whose motto is: "say what we want to hear not what you'll actually do".

In Germany–they're used to leaders who are uninvolved and asleep at the switch.

That would be a change for us in America.

JFK your not Barack, all this huppla, if U lose this election what smuck U are going to look like and how will that reflect upon the American People. I have not decided yet because of the issues I feel are important asides your image,U can still lozzzz, so quite playing at Presidental Image this job is more than angles and achidemic's those you R qualified @ lets here the details details we have along road back to the 9/11 image the world thought of us the time for substance is upon the American People.

OBAMAFEST!. I am jealous of the Germans.

media induced big hurrah…for the obama-man..Tomorrow WHEN the band
stops and the lights are out…..and in the dark the American people
will see how they have been taken on this false ride.

The big fall for Obama will Come November,2008 when America, the smart will choose the right man…..MCCAIN

//////////////////////////………….YES MCCAIN…………………..////////////////////////////////////

WE ARE CERTAIN OBAMA KNOWS THE

NAME OF THE GERMAN CHANCELLOR,

UNLIKE OUR FOREIGN RELATIONS "EXPERT" MCBUSHWHO

IN A SPEECH REPEATEDLY SAID "PUTIN PRESIDENT OF GERMANY".

DON'T BELIEVE ME , GOOGLE IT.

AMEN TO THAT…….. SHIRLEY Y -SEATTLE!

I AM SO TIRED OF PEOPLE WHO CAN'T MAKE A CASE AGAINST SEN. OBAMA OTHER THAN JUST ATTACK……..ATTACK AND DEMEAN!

He IS NOT OUR SAVIOR, we KNOW WHO OUR SAVIOR IS! I am profoundly offended by people who attempt to insult those of us supporting a decent, brilliant man!

If this is all you've got, please, be quiet!

It's refreshing to think that we almost have a leader that is again respected around the world. These foreign nations are our friends and if you take a step back and listen to how they are trashing our country and how ticked off they are at the US right now, you would understand that we desperately need someone to make amends and repair the damage that Bush and his administration has caused. Our reputation has been severely damaged and we need to get back in good standing.

How can you trust McCain when his greatest strength is national security and the war on terror and he doesn't even understand what has happened in Iraq????

Wake up People! This country cannot afford to go through another Bush administration which what will happen if McCain is elected.

All Hail Obama…the media's newly elected President.

Wish I could have been there!!! Go Obama!

Why is CNN not reporting that the US State Department is telling their foreign service employees that the should not attend Obama's speech in Germany. They are US citizens, and even as the Hatch Act prohibits their employees from actively participating in politics, attending speeches by candidates, as long as they are not working to get that candidate elected has never been denied before. What is next, the White House telling people who they can vote for if they want to keep their jobs?

Yeah, the Germans have a great track record for idolizing charasmatic leaders who are great orators.

If we are living in a global economy why does it who is president. Corporations run the world not presidents. Guess what corporate taxes are about equal to the defense budget.

Just a guess, but maybe it's because the EU is our largest trading partner and our allies in NATO, making their opinion of our country a significant part of our citizens' economic prosperity and national security.

Of course, I'm just "spitballing" here, but that does seem like it might be kinda important.

SAY NO TO MCCAIN THE NEXT VILLAGE IDIOT TRYING BECOME POTUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"OBAMA is no ordinary rock star. He is the kind of icon that were Kennedy, Martin Luther King and as is Mandela. He delivers substance with imagination and integrity. Beck insults millions of citizens of the world and of the USA and by claiming that they are just falling for just sizzle"

Are you kidding me? There is a sucker born every day……..Obama is a sheep in a wolf's clothing. There is no substance. He is a salesman. Obama or McCain…what a choice!

I WOULD SWITCH PROFESSIONS TO BE

A REPORTER WITH THE OBAMA TEAM.

A WONDERFUL CHANGE IS COMING !!!!!

I hate all this talk of experience.
None of the candidates has ANY experience being the president for the simple fact that non of them have ever been the president. Experience is something you gain by DOING something and since none of them has ever done it… they don't have any experience. Period. McCain has no more experience than Obama or HIllary, or Mitt. Hillary has seen it a lot closer up and has a much greater knowledge, but actually being the one to make the decisions, to be in secret meetings… she hasn't done that either. Obama has just as good a chance as any other candidate.

And what he has on his side that NO other candidate is this worldwide support. That is something this country hasn't had in almost a decade. He also has hope, and in case you want to bash all the hope talk, you should pick up a history textbook and give it a quick perusal. You'll notice that throughout history, the ones who have changed the course of nations are the ones who had hope. Ghandi, Dr. King, etc… hope was their mantra. Hope for a better tomorrow. There is not a single choice that any person can make that is not based on hope. Hope that this shirt makes you look better than the other. Hope that purchasing this car will save you money in the long run.

Obama may have some policies that we don't all agree with, but no candidate ever will agree with everyone. What Obama does have is this amazing gift to unify people and get people excited and that can be more important than anything else sometimes.

I for one am glad to see all the excitement abroad for this Jr. Senator. There is a reason they are putting his face with Kennedy's on buttons.

JESUS IS THE MESSIAH, HE DIED ON THE CROSS AND ROSE FROM THE GRAVE AND BY HIM YOU CAN BE SAVED. AGREE STOP WITH THE BLASPHEMY, IT'S DANGEROUS TO USE GOD NAME IN VAIN. THE BIBLE TELLS US THEIR IS NO FORGIVENESS USING GOD NAME IN VAIN.

OBAMA IS LOVED BECAUSE OF HIS PRESENCE, HE IS KIND AND WANTS THE BEST FOR ALL RACE AND GENDER.

This has the potential to be absolutely disastrous for Obama back in the United States. The photos and video will be great, but I think his campaign will see an unexpected backlash from this. Obama is going to give an American foreign policy speech in Berlin, Germany to a couple hundred thousand cheering Germans? It may or may not have this result, but I can see the potential for many Americans to be insulted by that - it gives the impression that he is campaigning in Europe to Germans. This has to potential to be the first bad move by the Obama campaign.

THIS IS FOR THE FELLOW THAT MADE

ACCUSATIONS AT THE WESTERN WALL.

WE ALL HAVE OUR MORONS, &

AS A JEW, I GUESS YOU ARE MINE.

WE SHOULD ALWAYS, ALWAYS, REMEMBER WHO WE ARE.

Lmao!!! I love it!!!! Do you all see the unadulterated hate and jealousy being spewd by repugs, and disenchanted voters on these blogs??? Muahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!

Poor McSame. His campaign said he was being treated by the media and the world as a "speedbump on the road to history." Well, I mean, isn't that what he is?

You know who else had a cult following like this? Hitler.If hes elected its militia time for alot of americans.And youll need more than a blog to save this fascist.

McCain said Obama needs to go overseas… now that he has, McCain is jealous that he draws bigger crowds and support by foreign leaders.

McCain = not so bright and always whining about something…

The whole world can see Obama is an intellegent, well spoken man with good judgement and character. Finally, America can once again gain respect from other countries with Obama in the White House.

AMERICA IS BACK !!!!!

THIS IS HOW AMERICAN PRESIDENTS

USED TO BE GREETED BY THE WORLD, UNTIL WE STARTED

ELECTING WARMONGERING MORONS, THAT ARE DEAD SET

ON SEEING, US BANKRUPT, & THE WHOLE WORLD AT WAR.

McCain said Obama needs to go overseas… now that he has, McCain is jealous that he draws bigger crowds and support by foreign leaders.

McCain = not so bright

Obama is probably the best candidate that ever took a world tour prior to an election. Now the people in these countries are getting to know what a fine man he is first hand. His wife is also going to make a great (beautiful) First Lady. (Hopefully, she will get tour the world so that these same people can meet her).

Obama 08: YES, WE SCAM!

The only chance we have to win the war on terror is to get the rest of the world on our side and eager to support us. Obama represents the America the rest of the world wants to love. They see him as the embodiment of the American dream and the endless possibility we offer to anyone willing to work hard enough. We've shot ourselves in the foot long enough. We need Obama so we can regain the admiration and respect for our country that Bush ruined.

As someone who has lived in Germany for many years, I am embarrased Obama is giving a speech in Berlin. He should not try to pretend he is JFK or Reagan, (it is rediculous to comapre him to them) and stop this nonsense of trying to win the election by speeches…and this time campaigning in a foreign country. I think it is wrong, and so are his policies.

Obama is one of a kind. I never seen a leader like Obama after John F.Kennedy.

Today I am just smiling. No negative thoughts, just a good feeling because America is being well represented in the eyes of the world. The world wants to like us, and we want them to like us. Yes we can!!!

What a Joke!

The Germans aren't going to be voting in the General Election.

They really like our Movie Star's.

McCain 08

Thank god most americans think that when the europeans are for something it means that it makes no sense and when they are upset with us means we are doing something right.In other words obama accepted by europeans means he loses votes here.I said it oonce and ill say it again the boy is unelectable.All you first time voters are gonna be so upset on election day.Youll say "what went wrong ,i thought b-diddy had it sewn up . The media said so".But youll learn that the only ones who are for this guy is the liberal media ,some snot nose never had a job college punks, and minorities. So listen up kids the boy is unelectable and germany has no electoral votes.Thank you and good nite.

Obama is just hoping to catch some of the hype that Kennedy caught back in the 60s when he appeared at the Berlin wall and declared in German "I am a Berliner." OBAMA is NO KENNEDY by a long shot.

I WONDER IF BUSH OR MCCAIN WOULD GET THIS MUCH ATTENTION?

Obama must be doing something right ! !!!!!!!!!!!

Great headline CNN, after Obama makes his VP selection, we can start with the Heckle and Jeckle jokes. By the way, Jerusalem is NOT FOR SALE!

Obama is the man, what can I say. Bush goes to Europe and protestors sprouts every where like mushrooms. I've changed my mind just like McBush, I am voting for Obama, the other guy (I don't want to mention his name and give him free plug) bores me to death.

I am definitely not voting for McCain but Obama has got no substance. To be fair though, he's still creating a buzz with his empty rhetoric but as they say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. But seriously though, when the debate starts, instead of people asking about the quality of his flagpins they should ask about issues like the economy and iraq and insist that he give a substantial answer. Same applies to McCain by the way.

The Germans are looking forward to listening to his speech only to say Dumkof afterward. LOL

That's the problem with this country (and much of the world) today. People think "Survivor" and "American Idol" constitute reality.
News flash: Reality for America has been made over two centuries by FREE hard WORKING people (not welfare recipients), who have shed their BLOOD fighting oppression (instead of hiding behind ineffectual rhetoric) around the world so that all of these liberal idiots have the right to spout their gibberish. Anyone who would vote in more uniformed fools like Pelosi and her crew (Obama, for instance) deserve what they get. Just don't ask ME to pay for your stupidity.

I'm just curious how Obama's vision of the "relationship” between the United States and Europe differs from the alliance that's been in place for decades.

Let's see, there seem to be some, lost in the stale Bush/McCain Kool-Aid, who are more comfortable having tens of thousands of Europeans take to the street to protest the Bush/McCain war policies than to see them take to the streets of Berlin in the same or greater numbers to greet and support the next President of the United States who represents change from the ruinous war and economic policies of Bush/McCain. Please, these are our allies who warned us not to go into Iraq and for their efforts were labeled the "old Europe" by an old shallow man. Barack Obama gives us a golden opportunity to redeem our image in the eyes of the world. My fellow Americans, this is leadership we can accept with pride.

I guess John McCain is still whinning about Obama receiving all of the media coverage?

I wish europe could vote in the ge mccain would be blowed away I think when obama comes back mccain should go and let us see how that turns out im curious to see how senator mccain would be treated!!!!!!!!!

COME ON CNN, BLOG SOME GOOD STUFF, THIS IS ELEMENTARY. CNN YOU SHOULD BE HECKLED FOR BLOGGING SOMETHING SO CHILDISH, YOU ARE HELPING THE REPUBLICAN FIND SOMETHING TO MESS UP OBAMA'S GREAT TRIP.

I agree with Jason L. We need to get away from zionist interests. They have FAR too much influence on our country and culture.

Has anyone else noticed Obama is getting a ridiculous amount of attention from CNN? I just counted down the ticker page and saw FIVE peices on Obama before I saw a single one on another person, and after the Mccain peice it went back to obama obama obama.

Who owns CNN again? Hmm… and Obama supports jewish zionism. Wonder if that has anything to do with the insane amount of positive publicity this network gives him.

Yes I think every american should watch this speech. I wonder if any of the pumas on here will watch it. They are so childish and stupid by voting four more years of Bush. I hope they wake up and see the day light. What does Mccain care about the high gas prices, the economy, loseing their homes. He will always have his billionaire, drug pusing wife who will support him

To- NotFallingInLine.org….GO TO H_LL!!!!

OBAMA is WHAT THE WORLD NEED NOW!!!!! CHANGE AND HOPE!!!!

GO OBAMA!
GO OBAMA
GO OBAMA
GO OBAMA
GO OBAMA

I'm betting Randy gives him the thumbs up. Paula and Simon I'm not so sure of.

Obama/Jacko

"….Berlin is a symbol for the victory of hope over fear and that it is impossible to separate people in their pursuit of freedom." - writes Barack Obama in the Berlin city's guestbook.

you gotta love this guy - very inspirationa and hopeful, and that's a future I want to believe in!

BARACK THE VOTE - President of the United States!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I 'm glad to see Obama is being well-received in the Midle East and Europe. In addition to becoming President of the United States, I stongly beleive he's America's hope for a better and improved global image abroad.

Mccain must be puking in his depends right now. He's been overseas quite a few times and we hardly knew he was there. No crowds, no press, no kings driving him to the airport. Guess people just don't believe in him, he represents more of the same ole bull and he's a liar to boot.

The speech is at 1.30 pm, dear Michelle Hussein

Hello Independents:
I am calling each and everyone of you to do the right thing in this election, because I am also an Independent. I can understand why a republican would vote for McCain. I am having a very tough time understanding someone who is a true Independent will have any questions after having seen and heard both candidates. The difference is so obvious that you don't need to spend more than 5 minutes listening to McCain that he should not get your vote. I would have still votted for Obama even if the the candidates had switched their Parties. Come on lets do it!
OBAMA 08 to bring this country back on track!

whole world is waiting for Obama to win white house. McWar is going to loose. obama 08!!!!

Can McCain haters please stick to the subject and just comment on their hero? I think they are very afraid of November. McCain is at home campaigning where he is supposed to be–while Obama is off being petted by socialists and making derogatory comments about America. ( and major gaffes in his role as "presumptive President")

I THINK IT IS DISGU
