According to Germanys most influential political magazine, Spiegel, Angela Merkel has decided to run for a fourth term in power and has already started talks on who will run her campaign. [ ]
If Merkel were to be re-elected in 2017 and then serve a whole four-year term, she would have been chancellor for 16 years, thus tying Helmut Kohl (CDU), who was chancellor from 1982-1998, as the longest serving chancellor in the history of the Bundesrepublik (the post-1945 German state).

She just may get the 4th term, provided the German equivalent to a Constitution doesn’t forbid it. Many Germans seem to trust Merkel’s method and philosophy on the EU, and related fiscal matters. However, I think many more Germans want her to slow down the rates of immigration, especially from people who don’t wish to assimilate, as with Turkey.
of course she does. nobody wants to give up power.
I was going to say that a Hitler mini-me is waiting in the wings!
