July 25, 2008
Washington (ChattahBox) - U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama spoke in front of 200,000 people in Berlin, Germany on Thursday, pushing for global unity, and a united front with America and Europe coming together.
Barack Obama will head to Paris on Friday, but the thoughts and fallout of his historic speech yesterday are still being felt.
Obama spoke in front of 200,000 people, stating that Americans and Europeans need to unite, tearing down allies, thoughts of race, faith, etc.
He stated that he hopes for “a world that stands as one. The greatest danger of all is to allow new walls to divide us from one another.”
“The walls between races and tribes, natives and immigrants, Christian and Muslim and Jew cannot stand. These now are the walls we must tear down.”
The speach was covered live in German, as well as U.S. television, and featured many crowd chants of his slogan, “Yes we can.”

One Munich newspaper summed up Obama perfectly:
“Obama had proved himself to be a clever tactician, capable of shifting positions to suit his audience.”
