Overthrowing oppressive regimes by military force

[abaris]

Okay I'll accept that list. Hitler personally was not elected, but how does that change the fact that the NAZIs were elected to govern?

They haven't been elected to govern. They only had most of the seats, but not a majority. That's the difference between representative and direct. The combined left was equally strong and the DNVP alone didn't provide a majority either. They took the possibility for a minority government, which Hindenburg approved. Even before the next elections - because of the NSDAP not finding a coalition partner for a majority.

It's a very complicated issue that would fill several pages to explain. Basically it was a coup by a government that never had the majority of the popular vote. That's why I posted the election charts earlier on. It's at the very basic to understand what was going on.,
