If you knew your history you would be aware that Hitler came to power in a democracy.

Yes, and those millions who voted for him were wrong. That was my point, in case it escaped you.

Might I also point out that Roosevelt until Pearl Harbour had a policy of appeasement towards Hitler as well, the intention was to let Britain fall, let him march across Europe and then sign a peace deal with him.

I think you mean Joseph Kennedy. Roosevelt did sign the Lend Lease Act, to his credit.

So to use the twisted logic of lumping all poeple on a continent together, I would say millions mof American's were wrong to.

There is wrong, as in having a barmy fool like Joseph Kennedy as Ambassador to Britain. And there is wrong in which millions of people vote Nazi. Huge difference of wrong in both degree and kind.

Regards, Ivan
