Why not. Two hundred thousand people came to hear him but none of them understood English. Its better that they couldn’t understand him anwyway. He’ll just say something different the next time he goes there - hopefully as a private citizen then.

Honestly, as a Senator he has the right. Since he is within his legal right, I don’t see a problem with it.

no, i think you missed the entire point of him going overseas and giving speech or speeches ? in order to function in this world we need close allies and friends which is why he went there to seek friendship from our former friends and to improve our image overseas, haven’t you noticed when Bush goes overseas people protest and burn our flag but when Obama went same people cheered and raised American flags ?

Senator Obama along with Republican Senator Chuck Hagel; went to European and Middle East committee chairs of the State Department; for fact findings. Many people are not aware of the various committees that exist in the Congress. Some require travel aboard. By chance, Obama happen to be involved in a General Election. Remember McCain also visited last month to South America.

Well, there are other humans in this world besides those who reside in the USA…..and since the US is supposedly the most powerful country in the world don’t you think that people in Europe and other continents are interested in who will be our leader? There are also many many Americans who reside in Europe and vote via absentee ballot…..we are not just citizens of the USA we are citizens of this world so I think it is completely appropriate and dignified for him to speak in Europe.
