Ron Paul @ Google

Dear Americans, vote this guy and I`ll take pride in the words: Ich bin ein Amerikaner!

Shouldn't it be "Ich bin Amerikaner."
But I understand, I just remember my high school German teacher drilling that into our heads.

Hi there,

I think I got it right:

All free men, wherever they may live, are citizens of Berlin, and, therefore, as a free man, I take pride in the words "Ich bin ein Berliner."

Oh, no. I didn't mean that. JFK did say "ein Berliner." But my German teacher told us it was proper German to leave out the "ein" and just say "Ich bin Berliner."

Fabio Bossi hat gesagt…

Ah ok. Well, she was right. But to put the "ein" into it, isn`t wrong either.
In this case it kind of emphasizes it.
And of course I wanted to make the allusion to JFK. That sentence is pretty popular in German. I hope the german audience got it...But in my personal case it is even true. I learned a lot about the US from Ron Paul and I think the US has a fantastic constitution. I would love to have it too.
I think I was becoming kind of "anti-american" but Dr. Paul and the Paulites reasured me: I`m only Anti-a-bunch-of-interventionist-crooks.

Lol. Well, I'm just as hopeful that Dr. Paul can accomplish something amazing. Also, I think it's interesting that you find the American constitution so inspiring. I guess the Founders really did understand history and human nature better than anybody else back then, or even now. So, auf wiedersehen!
