“But he is not president of the United States”

What about that upcoming Obama speech/rally in Germany? You know, the one Obama wanted to give before the Brandenburg Gate before switching the location to one of Hitler's favorite victory monuments?

“It is not going to be a political speech,” said a senior foreign policy adviser, who spoke to reporters on background. “When the president of the United States goes and gives a speech, it is not a political speech or a political rally.

“But he is not president of the United States,” a reporter reminded the adviser.

“He is going to talk about the issues as an individual … not as a candidate, but as an individual, as a senator,” the adviser added.

And he will be talking about those issues in a non-political way, I suppose. Hilarious. The observation that Obama's inexperience has come to manifest itself as a type of nouveau riche attitude has already been made. It's hard to disagree, albeit this time the attitude is manifested by the staff.
