Merkel's (CDU) dismantling of Schaeuble's (strong America ally) Bundespresident candidacy defines her Anmerica stance for me just fine, thank you.

I agree with your consensus.

You´re a bit harsh. I agree with you that Schäuble should have become President, but as we have seen, Köhler got a narrow 2-votes-majority. I won´t imagine how many Liberals had voted against Schäuble!?

Köhler is a good choice.
