*I SAID, Hitler was first ELECTED to the German parliament, and eventually APPOINTED chancellor.*

Oh, that’s rich. And what area of Germany was Hitler representing in this Reichstag seat you have magically given him? Hmm?

Hitler never ran for election to the Reichstag. Why don’t you do a little research and tell us why? He did run for President in 1932 to Hindenburg and was trounced. Again, why don’t you do some research and tell us why Hitler suddenly did run for an elective office in 1932?

*These FACTS are not in dispute. What are YOU trying to say?*

Your facts ARE NOT FACTS. That’s what I’m trying to say. This is like arguing with an semi-illiterate over what the second letter of the alphabet is.

Let me first say this -- if you would scale back on the insults, and scale up the actual information, your posts would be more interesting.

Let's see if I understand what you are trying to say, minus the insults:

While Hitler's Nazi party drew increasing shares of the German vote from the mid 1920s on, and therefore increasing representation in the German Parliament (Reichstag), Hitler himself never served in the Reichstag.

When Hitler ran for President in 1932, he was defeated by Paul Hindenburg. But Hindenburg was unable to form a government without the Nazis, who now held 43% of the Reichstag seats, so in 1933 Hindenburg appointed Hitler to be the new chancellor.

Is that about it? Did you notice the absence of insults?
