".....privately, the good Germans said he was crude and pushy.....that they hated his swagger......"

Something you need to factor in is that when Hitler was elected, about half of all Germans lived in villages with a population of 2k or less. Another 25% lived in towns from 2k to 100k. Guess which groups turned out for Hitler in the largest numbers?

The red voters.......I mean one of the 50% who lived in towns < 2k? <g>

Even now, Germany is not a country of big cities.....even with its total population of 80 million people. Berlin is the largest at 3.2 million, hardly a big number for a world capital. Next largest is Hamburg with 1.5 million. Germany is really a country of small cities and towns.

If I were to move there, I think I would live in Berlin. Did you see the Bourne Supremacy.....great shots of Berlin?
