Um, FYI, he wasn't elected. He was appointed Chancellor. And his party
garnered only 39%.
However, the only germane point here,which,of course, you've missed, is he
was elected by the people INSIDE Germany, not outside. NOBODY outside of
Germany sup****ted Hitler. Well, expect for few Big Biz types eager to make
a
buck any way possible...

Oh, fer chrissakes...
Anyone who read 'Mein Kampf' had no doubts as to Hitler's intentions.
Oh, sorry, I forgot. Conservadolts don't read...

BWA HA HA HA HA HA, whew!
Your Republidolt isolationist heroes figure it must have been a, er,

Had he actually been elected, you might be right. Once again,and do try to
pay attention this time, Hitler was APPOINTED Chancellor.
Man, after 2000 I'd think you rightards would understand the difference
between elected and selected...

Which part of "fascist" can you simply not wrap that desiccated rat turd

Amazing. You idiots just don't get it. Continuing to claim "no one could
have known" only makes you look all the more stupid, as the fact of the
matter is while YOU idiots didn't know, most people who could scrape up 2
brain cells to rub together certainly did.

ABSTRACT:
....the authors found that participants scoring in the bottom quartile
on tests of humor, grammar, and logic grossly overestimated their test
performance and ability. Although their test scores put them in the
12th percentile, they estimated themselves to be in the 62nd.
