Obama to demand more from Europe in Berlin speech - swissinfo

Quote:

BERLIN (Reuters) - U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama is expected to call on Europe to do more in hotspots like Afghanistan when he speaks in Berlin on Thursday in his only formal address of a week-long foreign tour.

Obama held talks with Chancellor Angela Merkel on issues ranging from the global economy, to Iran and Middle East peace after arriving in the German capital from Israel on a trip he hopes will burnish his foreign policy credentials and boost his election chances against Republican challenger John

And here is Obama already pretending to be president at a campaign stop using my tax dollars.

Pathetic.

BTW did anyone else notice the Jimmy carter cabinet members with Obama's campaign in the ME.

At least he's acting like one. We haven't had a leader that's acted like a President for practically a decade.....all we've had is "the decider".

Wait, is this thread about bush or is this yet another deflection from actually discussing any critisism of the new king?

I'm more interested in the fact that the EU is receiving him like the next President. It somewhat indicates what other parts of the world are hoping for.

Oh indeed. The fact that there may be a million there is shocking and should be a clue to Americans this is the wrong man for the job.

Although this set up of the Obama is an interesting thing. Almost like watching a train wreck and adding a semi to the tracks.

When this man becomes the next carter, it's going to be fun.

The fact that the man might be able to repair the damage that Bush has done to our relationships with our allies around the world....this is what makes him the wrong man for the job?

Who do you consider to be the right man for the job?

But not McCain and not Obama.

So I'm to gather that you don't want Europe to be more engaged in these conflicts? How bizarre.

By showing that were are rejecting the "isolationist" policies of Bush....meaning alienating our allies and choosing to "go it alone" rather than appeal to our common interests.
Obama's speech will show that he is interested in our allies in Europe and that he wants to begin to work with them again and begin to repair the damage of the last 8 years.

So again....who do you think is the right man for the job. Its one thing to constantly criticize.....why not offer an alternative?
By the consistent tone of your posts....its pretty obvious that although you don't claim to be a McCain supporter, you obviously are.
