Below you will find a link to one of the finest speeches I have ever read. It only saddens me that much of our nation will never read or hear this profoundly wise gift. It is said some 200,000 people is Germany cared to hear it, yet it is doubtful many Americans will take the time to listen. Such a sad state we are in. The following link is a transcript of Sen. Barack Obama's evening speech in front of the Tiergarten's 226-foot high Victory Column in Berlin, Germany on July 24, 2008 during his first European trip as a U.S. presidential candidate. http://abcnews.go.com/print?id=5442292 Here is the actual video of the speech. Youtube is the greatest. http://my.barackobama.com/page/content/berlinvideo/
