Barack Obama is acting more like a world leader than the presumptive Democratic nominee running for President of the United States. The junior U.S. Senator from Illinois is in the middle of a whirlwind tour that included Iraq.

The international tour was undertaken to prop up Obama’s foreign policy credentials. He and his team have received briefings from U.S. commanders and others along the way. Stops have included Afghanistan, Baghdad, Jordan and Berlin with planned trips yet this week to France and England.

An interesting side note is that all three major news networks, ABC, CBS and NBC have sent their top guns to report on the candidates every move. When John McCain visited Iraq in March, his media entourage consisted of the regular press pool.

We’ve got some photos of Obama yesterday in Berlin, including the candidate walking through the Ritz Carlton dressed and ready to workout. His now familiar grey t-shirt and jogging pants indicate he may have found a pickup game of hoops. We see the candidate being ushers by his security detail into a large white SUV.

The cameras caught up with Obama later that evening at the Borchardt restaurant. We see evidence of his secret service posse hovering outside the eatery entrance in one photo.

Obama’s closest companion on this trip and on the campaign trail back home is Reggie Love. The body man, who Barack says is “cooler than I am”, is attached to the senator at the hip. Check out details and photos of Love here.
