>From the article: === But the decision to approve the Brandenburg Gate speech lies with local Berlin authorities, and yesterday the city's leftwing mayor Klaus Wowereit dropped all diplomatic pretence. "The mayor would be delighted to have Mr Obama take advantage of speaking at the Brandenburg Gate to spread his message," said the mayor's spokesman. === I read this as an illegal campaign contribution. The Mayor of Berlin is granting Obama a speaking engagement for the stated purpose of pushing his campaign for President. Obama needs to be careful he doesn't run afoul of election rules.
