Barack Obama spent a dizzying day delivering a speech to tens of thousands of Germans. As he stood under the tower of Winged Victory in Berlin, he spoke of bringing the globe together as a "citizen of the world." One world rhetoric, and all that.
For the audience at home, he tossed in a helpful reminder that he also hearts America: "I love America," he said, face all studied earnestness. (Interestingly, neither John F. Kennedy nor Ronald Reagan had to be prompted to speak of their love of their country while there.)
Meanwhile, reports surfaced that while he is seducing Europe, his team is preparing for the transition to the White House. This is hardly a shocker since his entire repertoire has been based upon acting as if he's already president.
In their "trip and transition" euphoria, however, Team Obama seems to be making what could be a fatal error...
