Just don't be stupid. Don't do anything that would draw attention to yourself. Don't speak too loudly, and be really polite.

yeah...just don't say anything along the lines of:
"hey, you hear what happened in world war 2?
we WON!"

they wont hate you. just because some Germans were Nazi's doesn't mean that all Germans agree with that they did. i have meet a few Germans and they are very nice and don't care about what race you are. they are like any other normal person

How they view Americans that go there to visit? Can you tell if someone is American? See, I want to move there after I get out of college, I want to become a citizen, but I don't want to stick out.

according to my history teacher, the hookers sure can

You will probably stick out for quite awhile.  If you don't speak German, you'll stick out.  If you do speak German, you will probably have a strong American accent and thus stick out.  If you speak German and somehow have a decent German accent while speaking it, you'll probably have a rather different outlook in terms of politics, your focus on race, your opinion on WWII, etc. that you will stick out.  And even if you do fit in with German society on the whole, you won't fit in with everybody - Germany is a rather diverse bunch (in terms of thought, outlook, personality, intelligence, politics, etc.), even among those who are ethnically German.

If you migrate to Germany and present yourself as a German because you have German heritage, you will probably be ridiculed as a stupid American.  Don't be silly and try to not pretend you aren't American in any way, and that your background in the US hasn't influenced you at all.
