"Hitler came to power by turning the working class, unemployed, and academic elite against the conservative republic.
I wonder how many "little Ward Churchills" Hitler was able to commandeer to promote his hideous agenda.

I wonder how many "little Ward Churchills" Hitler was able to commandeer to promote his hideous agenda. If it is like the US is now, all he had to do was visit any faculy of any school or university and he would have to beat them off with a stick.

A good read to be sure. You might also be familiar with C.S. Lewis' "Mere Christianity", which contains within it a letter from Hitler beyond the grave. In this letter, he congratulates his followers for pegging their modern-day opponents as Nazis!
Hitler's sequal to Mein Kampf is even more troubling than the first in the series. In it, he unequivocably states that The United States must be subdued in order for the Reich to be preserved. The manuscript was not published, but has ben unveiled. There was a special done on it on The History Channel.

Wouldn't Democrats and the DUmmies be much more close to the characteristics of NAZIs?

I would quibble with some of the historical details of the early days of the Nazi era as presented in the letter, but the gist of it is correct. The most authoratative source is probably still William Shirer's
The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. Shirer was a US correspondent stationed in Berlin during that time frame, so he saw things up close and personal.
There are definitely some eery parallels between the current regime in the US and the Nazis in their early days of power in Germany. Still, I don't think that the American people will acquiesce to Obamination anywhere near as easily as the Germans did to Hitler.

This is an amazing article. Why don’t people want to learn from history or from those who suffered through it?
