Here's the most astounding part:

One international leader was conspicuously absent at the 20 Year Anniversary of the Fall of the Berlin Wall today.

Even the Russian President made it there.

Obama sent a video instead.

Even worse- Obama spoke about himself to the crowd:

“Few would have seen on that day that… that their American ally would be led by a man of African descent.”

And, of course, he did not mention Ronald Reagan or Margaret Thatcher in his speech.
