In a speech in Berlin today, he told a huge crowd that walls cannot stand between old allies, between rich and poor countries, between races and tribes, natives and immigrants, Christians and Muslims and Jews. It's the latest stop in an overseas trip meant to bolster his foreign policy credentials. John McCain says while he'd love to give a speech in Germany, he'd rather do it as president than as a candidate. McCain is campaigning in Ohio today. After lunching on bratwurst with local business leaders in Columbus, he told reporters he wants to focus on economic issues such as soaring gas and fuel prices. A new national poll suggests Barack Obama has opened a big lead over John McCain among Hispanic voters. The survey by the Pew Hispanic Center shows 66 percent of registered Hispanic voters polled supported the Democrat compared to 23 percent for his Republican rival. Minneapolis and St. Paul police are hoping to keep the peace during this summer's Republican National Convention. Certain officers have been asked to keep open lines of communication with activist leaders at the convention -- in an attempt to increase understanding, and reduce any possible tensions during the convention. ___ ___, The Associated Press, with AP Campaign Minute.
