Obama says Europeans have anti-US feelings

Barcelona News.Net
Thursday 24th July, 2008

Barack Obama has asked European leaders to refocus on the campaign against terrorism.

He has told NBC News that the next president will have to resolve the conflict and tension that had built up during the Bush presidency.

He said that after eight years of President Bush’s leadership, Europe had adopted the view that the United States had stopped listening to others in the world and had become an aggressor.

Earlier, in his address to more than 200,000 people near the site of the former Berlin Wall, Senator Obama made a similar point in saying: “In Europe, the view that America is part of what has gone wrong in our world has become all too common.”

Mr Obama was greeted warmly in Berlin by his audience in the German capital.

Newspaper headlines proclaimed 'Obamamania' and compared him to John F Kennedy, with surveys suggesting three out of four Germans want him to be the next US president.

Meanwhile, Republican presidential candidate John McCain has said the media is biased in favour of his opponent.

Mr Obama has been followed around Europe by all of America’s major news networks with Republican critics looking on enviously as his news conferences have been given full coverage.

By contrast their candidate John McCain's town hall-style meetings have attracted scant interest from the press.

Some are afraid to speak up

Yes, many European leaders are playing the field, and are waiting for this bush administration to leave the scene, and they are keeping silence against bush, because they fear this very dangerous man, that might be vindictive with the power that he has in his possession, some weak yes men are giving him the false impression of being in accord with his policies, but underneat they are really against him and his fallacies.

Sammy, who says what he thinks, becuse his days are limited.

Obama's Speech To 200,000 Rallies In Berlin, Germany.

Interiorly, the 2008 Presidential Hopeful JOHN McCAIN’s campaign limelight was no contend with Sen. Obama’s speech in front of 200,000 rallies in Berlin, Germany. In fact, American people wish there is NO (previous) Berlin Wall between the trade arguments of the United States of America and Germany, but so far the U.S. and E.U. have its conflict of interests. If the white mainstream in here America and there Germany are looking for a “change” of the economy of Atlantic regions, this black Democratic US presidential candidate Sen. Barack Hussein Obama has NOT deliver his “change” to German people, but ONLY his “Obama’s Afghanistan War” message, that is a renewal Bush’s anti-terrorism legacy to “swap” the US combat troops from Iraq War to Afghanistan as far as American people hear from Obama’s presidential campaign. However Sen. JOHN McCAIN would like to tell American people that Obama’s Afghanistan War is a “terrible wrong” direction to 2009 US foreign policy; how can Obama to order to withdraw the US combat troops within 16 months to swap the US troops to fight his Obama’s Afghanistan War; it seems like this junior-level US Senator Barack Obama of Illinois has been confusing himself, there are foreign alQaeda militias fighting the street-combat in Iraq and there are also alQaeda militias fighting the mountain-warfare in Afghanistan back-and-forth. If there is no confidence crisis against German Chancellor Angela Merkel now and these 200,000 German citizens agree on Obama’s Afghanistan War, no need to wait for next year of 2009, why not Germany send their troops to join the NATO in Afghanistan now ? The 2009 McCAIN administration in White House DON’T want to make our US soldiers' psychological collapse, the “1st” year of McCAIN administration in White House will NOT increase US combat troops to Afghanistan, but Pentagon under McCAIN administration will step up our US Air Force’s airstrike-power to assist the European NATO’s troops in Afghanistan to make sure all the mountains' caverns wherever are close to rivers are sealed. Do you believe there are many tunnels dug can let alQaeda and Osama (bin Laden) to commute across from Pakistan to Afghanistan ? The ground troops are fighting for nothing.

Last time during our state governor election in California, we’ve had campaigned and discussed a lot of the economy of Pacific regions; but the California governor is an European immigrant and the Democrats led mainstream’s white stuffs are still attention on economy of Atlantic regions; resulted the weak US dollar devaluation, EURO is up, gasoline price is sky-high, Californians are losing homeownership and mortgage. American people in America’s soil don’t need a “black John F. Kennedy” or a “black Ronald Reagon” to campaign in Berlin, Germany to let German folks to choose our 2008 US President, Sen. JOHN McCAIN and American people ONLY interest to Germans are ready to purchase American-made export goods yet ?

Obama says Europeans have anti-US feelings

It is too early to juxtapose Obama with JFK in Berlin. JFK went to Berlin and did his Ich Bin Berliner speech when he was already president of the USA.

Obama wanting to be compared to JFK - IS NOT EVEN THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE YET. Obama is getting bad advice from his handlers.

Meanwhile McCain is gaining on the “Obama Change Train” which is just about losing steam.
