Of course that's true, Greg - though not terribly significant. In
countries with a parliamentary system (the more common form of
representative government), the party or coalition which attains the
majority in Parliament gets to choose the head of state - he isn't
elected directly. The actual appointment of that head is usually mere
formality, however. I doubt that Hindenburg really WANTED the likes of
Hitler running things, but he didn't really have a choice once the
National Socialists controlled the legislature.
