Chilling reminder of Hitler's Charisma.

[Feuer Frei!]

One of the main reasons why Hitler was so successfull early on in 'deceiving' the people was because Germany was in a bad state economically. Unemployment was at an all-time high and they were 'lost'. The nation was in need of reform, of something or someone to pick them up and give them a fresh purpose. Re-introduce that German spirit.
Hitler was there at the right time.
His speaking skills were nothing new. The way he could captivate the audience was nothing new.
He practiced speaking in front of mirrors for many hours, practicing hand movement with every word.
He gave the people work, he designed and built the Volks Wagen, he designed and built the infamous Auto Bahns.
He fixed unemployment and gave the nation the 'pick-me-up' that was needed.
The right time, the right place.
I have listened and watched many of his speeches. The way he could captivate the listener was remarkable.
His power to persuade people by words was only so powerful because of that right moment.
Very doubtful if he could have achieved his following if Germany were a nation of prospect and hope and industry at that time.
