GERHARD WHO?:

Americans Fall Back in Love with Germany (Gregor Peter Schmitz, 10/10/08, Der Spiegel)

The dispute between Germans and Americans over Iraq and George W. Bush appears to be a thing of the past. Nearly one in two Americans has a very positive image of the European country. And more than one-third categorize German-American relations as excellent or very good, with only four percent perceiving them as bad. Indeed, Americans view Germany as their country's fourth most important ally -- trailing only Britain, Canada and Japan.

If the Unicorn Rider wins in November we face the historical aberration of a G-7 meeting where the United States has the only Leftist leader.
