Grassroots political activism in action – again.
Not particularly interested in Christian Wulff, the presidential candidate the current ruling coalation is pushing through, German internet activists are activating the Internet for Mr. No Chance in Hell Joachim Gauck instead.
More power to ya, folks, but he’s just too impartial and unconnected and doesn’t have a chance, like I said. But hey, do the right thing. You never know. Like the German saying goes: You don’t have a chance, so use it.
“Gauck has a rich life story shaped by the Cold War. At the age of 11, his father was arrested by communist authorities and sent to the Gulag in Siberia. After the Berlin Wall fell, Gauck ran the state-run archives on the Stasi, earning recognition for exposing the crimes of the dreaded East German secret police.”

They all want to go down into the history books, that´s it, as the Potentates, who didn´t get the chance of forming this great country of never-forgotten socialistic Obamatum.
Honi of the eastern world is their unforgotten nectar and maple syrup of the western world they now despire.
AK – Gauck actually seems genuinely interesting, and has had some morally relevant life experience. If you want a rare and relevant lecture ‘from on high’, to address a crisis, he is precisely the sort of person who can give it.
I tell ya, Joe, the thing that made it clear to me that I really liked this guy was the when the reaction (or non-reaction) of the Left party came out on this. They HATE this guy for some strange, inexplicable reason…
Because he clearly understands the consquences of the Linke’s ideology, and can objectively say that it leads to -evil-. It’s not a case of sort of not-beneficial, or kinda-sorta-this ‘n than, but plainly totalitarian evil.
