Regarding Germany and Obama; a friend who spends time in Germany and has many friends there told me something today that was quite interesting. You know that visit to Germany for his 2008 campaign where Germans showed up by the thousands to see Obama? Yeah, not so much. The Obama campaign hosted concert at that event with Germany's two most popular rock bands playing and it was FREE to all who showed up.
That explains the difference in crowd size between then and now.

We knew that at the time. The media didn’t broadcast it.
