CABL Forum - Who Am I??

I was born in one country, raised in another.
My father was born in another country. I was
not his only child. He fathered several
children with numerous women.

*I became very close to my mother, as my
father showed no interest in me. My mother
died at an early age from cancer. I became
close with my grandmother.

*Later in life, questions arose over my real
name.

*My birth records were sketchy and no one was
able to produce a legitimate, reliable birth
certificate.

*I grew up practicing one faith but converted
to Christianity, as it was widely accepted in
my country, but I practiced non-traditional
beliefs & didn't follow Christianity, except
in the public eye under scrutiny.

*I worked and lived among lower-class people
as a young adult, disguising myself as
someone who really cared about them..

*That was before I decided it was time to get
serious about my life and I embarked on a new
career.

*I wrote a book about my struggles growing
up. It was clear to those who read my
memoirs that I had difficulties accepting
that my father abandoned me as a child.

*I became active in local politics in my 30's
then with help behind the scenes, I literally
burst onto the scene as a candidate for
national office in my 40s. They said I had a
golden tongue and could talk anyone into
anything. That reinforced my conceit.

*I had a virtually non-existent resume,
little work history, and no experience in
leading a single organization. Yet I was a
powerful speaker and citizens were drawn to
me as though I were a magnet and they were
small roofing tacks.

*I drew incredibly large crowds during my
public appearances. This bolstered my ego.

*At first, my political campaign focused on
my country's foreign policy. I was very
critical of my country in the last war and
seized every opportunity to bash my country.

*But what launched my rise to national
prominence were my views on the country's
economy. I pretended to have a really good
plan on how we could do better and every poor
person would be fed & housed for free.

*I knew which group was responsible for
getting us into this mess. It was the free
market, banks & corporations. I decided to
start making citizens hate them and if they
were envious of others who did well, the plan
was clinched tight.

*I called mine "A People's Campaign" and that
sounded good to all people.

*I was the surprise candidate because I
emerged from outside the traditional path of
politics & was able to gain widespread
popular support.

*I knew that, if I merely offered the people
'hope', together we could change our country
and the world.

*So, I started to make my speeches sound like
they were on behalf of the downtrodden, poor,
ignorant to include "persecuted minorities"
like the Jews. My true views were not
widely known & I needed to keep them unknown,
until after I became my nation's leader.

*I had to carefully guard reality, as anybody
could have easily found out what I really
believed, if they had simply read my writings
and examined those people I associated with.

*I'm glad they didn't. Then, I became the
most powerful man in the world. And the world
learned the truth.

*Who am I? *

I am “ADOLF HITLER”.
