You're just being diplomatic, Tom. Based on my 4 1/2 years in Germany, they're saying:

Ficken Sie auf, Herr Obama.

Hey, “gelangen” is quite a fancy German word. But there’s a fixed expression:

(Rufen Sie uns nicht an,) Wir melden uns bei Ihnen! (Literally: Don’t call us, we’ll report back to you.)
