Decades ago President Kennedy (JFK) went to a defeated and divided Berlin and famously announced:
Ich bin ein Berliner.
Imagine a President Trump going to Vienna in 2017 and announcing:
Ich bin ein Wiener.
Imagine a President Ted Cruz going to Paris and announcing:
Je suis un escargot (de jardin).
Imagine a President Hillary Clinton going to London and announcing:
I am an English Muffin.
Or even:
Imagine a President Sarah Palin in, say, Birmingham, announcing that:
Yes, I am a raspberry Tart……….
Imagine if you can….
Yes, I almost can……….
