Yes and it should remind us, that the democratic system is very imperfect! Even in the USA. A powerful President with deep influence can slowly become more and more powerful until the Parliament is meaningless. And when the country simultaneously is in a deep recession then "gnade uns gott". IMO: politics == process howto get more power and control! And a democratic system don't saves us for persons, which want to use this power evil. It just makes the process more bureaucratic. And that's the trick. But you can't compare the democratic system of 1932 with our systems in 2002! But take look on Austria and J�rg Haider. If you are a German native Speaker you should read the current discussion on about bilingual street shields <http://derstandard.at/>. But don't let this dicussion become political! IMHO politics sucks ;) Gerhard <a lightwighted anarchist ;)> --------------------------------------------------------- I don't suffer from insanity.
