              You must admit he makes a good impression in that vid - the left-right tipping just adds to sympathy.

                      He wasn't really a good speaker. Germans were just good listeners.

                          What was it that Stalin said?

                          "Hitlers come and go, but Germany and the German people remain."

                            Hmmm, saw a fun spoof of this not long ago, dubbed with some hiphop song or something.

                            Right:

                                Oddly enough you've hit on a truth. It's not so much what he was saying or how he said it, but the fact that so many Germans were willing to hear it as an explanation that worked.

                                If Germany (and many other European countries) had not already had a history of antisemitism (official and unofficial) then I doubt that Hitler's 'message' would have caught on- his voice, according to unbiased witnesses, was not particularly attractive or mellifluous- he certainly didn't have cadences of Martin Luther King or Churchill.

                                His words, especially the antisemitic diatribes, were often thought to be so ludicrously over the top by even his contemporaries, that people found it hard to take him seriously at first.

                                A good comparison would be with Mussolini- lacking the vision of a theatrical mind like Leni Riefenstahl's, Musso's rallies and speeches look like the bald chap fom the Three Stooges channeling Chaplin's 'Great Dictator'.

                                Similarly, every time I see a Reagan snippet, I can't help but be impressed by the complete lack of genuine substance in a Reagan speech- it's all flannel and soft soap, nothing real beyond the soap bubble surface.
