Germany was not and is not anti-American;
Germany is, was and will continue to be anti toxic, counterproductive war mongering, blood drenched, democracy destroying policies based on nothing but lies and deceit as W. Bush and his NeoCons stood and stand for.
Thank God that's history, and we can start getting back to sanity, real life, and good relations again, which is absolutely what we need, there is too much happening in the world right now for the US to be isolated from the rest of us.
Obama definitely stands for a change in the right direction.
Yesterday was a real Love Fest in the Berlin "FanMeile", the street bang in the very centre of Berlin leading from the Brandenburg Gate to the Siegessäule, where hundreds of thousands congregated during the football World Cup 2006, or, more recently, during Euro 2008, which was basically just a seemingly never ending succession of gigantic open air partys.
Well, that euphoric atmosphere was totally back last night when Obama came to the same FanMeile and gave his Berlin speech in front of the Siegessäule, again hundreds of thousands had come to see him and cheer him on with amazing enthusiasm, as if they were back in a football match or in a concert with some SuperStar !
What an amazing spectacle.
I'm most definitely not susceptible to hero worship, nor do I agree with all of his positions, but if you want that in a candidate you need to run for office yourself anyway, but I do see how important the right person can be at the right time to bring about change, and I must admit that I like him and his very apparent sincerity, there is no doubt in my mind that he is the by far best candidate that could become the next US president.
I certainly hope he makes it !
