Hitler was elected, the Jewish people were the minority, and had to submit to the will of the majority. And there are many other examples of dictatorships supported democracy, or people who live in countries where they do not agree with anything he's done. |

11/4/2014 9:24:50 AM Posted: 3 years ago Let me say again, Hitler was not elected. He lost the 1932 election. He was APPOINTED Chancellor after several political coups that kept a number of elected officials from being allowed to vote. The only "elections" that he won were after he abolished all other parties so the people's only choice was to vote for him and the Nazi or not vote at all.
But if you wish to ignore that, then you also have to remember that Germany also had a constitution, which did nothing to prevent his rise to power. "Wanting Red Rhino Pill to have gender" |

Today a lot of dictators in Middle East and South America are using "democracy" to implement dictatorships. (also in Russia). |

The law is altered and shaped by politicians elected by the will of the majority. In Roman law, in which these democracies are based, the law is not established through precedent as in the US, but by Congress vote. |
