But as a "citizen" of the United States, he stood up in front of thousands of Germans and said that America has made mistakes. Even if he wasn't apologizing in a literal sense, he was still making a statement of a large magnitude, knowing full well that he is not a "normal" citizen. Do you or I get to do that when we feel like it? He may have said that he's speaking as a citizen, but that is not what he portrays.

But hey, if hundreds of thousands of people really wanted to hear me speak, i'd try and keep them entertained for a little while.
