This report is out about a planned speech by Barack Obama.

A German friend passed along the news Saturday that local sources in Berlin are confirming that the Obama campaign was in contact with city authorities to discuss the possibility of presumptive Democratic nominee Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) delivering an outdoor address in front of the Brandenburg gate.

Excuse me -- did I sleep through the election and inauguration? Why is Barack Obama giving a major speech in Germany -- especially in such an iconic location -- when he is still a mere candidate for the presidency, and not even officially nominated yet?

For that matter, since when do American presidential candidates campaign in foreign countries?
