re: I think he was focusing more on Hitler's technique as a demagogue and propagandist and self-invented man.

you have to agree that there were a lot of outstanding demagogues in the history without associations to most horrible war crimes in the history of humankind

re: similar admiration for Joe Stalin,

while stalin was, what you call it an evil man, he was nothing when compared to Hitler

re: You ask college students, "who's evil?" and they'll reply on cue, "Adolf Hitler". You ask, "anybody else?" and they'll go "ummm...".

can I name someone who would be in the same category as hitler, ummmmmm.... I honestly can not.....

Years ago I read a book that was something like the Steel of Krupt. Big book. It said that when European countries went to war the winner was the one who could kill the most Germans. Then Krupt steel built a cannon that would shoot further than any existing cannon. Really changed the game plan.
