    I doubt if Hitler would have come to power if CNN and social media were all over him and some of the things he did would definately not have been able to happen.
    That's probably true...and most of the great things wouldn't happen either because of some dumbass protestors showing up.

    Looking through those protesters signs there are a bunch of wacky ones but I have to say I enjoyed this one the most.

    If Hitler had the Internet it would have been a dream come true. It would have made things much easier for him. He could have spread his word faster and further similar to what has happened now.

    Angry

    Sorry couldn't help myself. In some ways I agree. All things are situational and everything is intertwined. I was just thinking that if FDR had not lied and withheld information from the US population we might not have gotten into World war II at all. I The idea of entering another European war was very unpopular until he let Pearl harbor happen. Ignoring intelligence reports allowed him to stop having to go behind the American people's back. These days people think that each and every American citizen has to sign off before we take military action so that may have even been exaggerated.
