According to reports, more than 200,000 people cheered Obama's rousing speech at the Berlin's Victory Column. The media went agog, describing his appearance as a historic event.

Here Comes Prince America, screamed a newspaper headline. Take a look at the Berlin tour of perhaps the most-loved American on the planet now.
