I assume nothing.
Some time ago I became interested in WWII. So I asked some REAL experts what I should read. I started out with "Mein Kampf" - after all it is the beginning, then I read Wm Shirer's "Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" and Albert Speer's "Inside the Third Reich." It went on from there. The whole video series about the war, the TIME/Life series as well as many first hand accounts.
I've read all those titles, plus many more. I've been involved with first hand interviews with veterans. The research was for some articles published in WWII Magazine.
Have you watched the Band of Brothers series? I live about 30 miles from Major Winters. I've met him, several times and have had the absolute privilidge of talking with him at length about his experiences.
Having read Mein Kampf... Certainly, Barack Obama's motivations are not similar. But some of the methods are, would you not agree? Face it ES... You are a very self confident person. You think that your way is THE way. You've said before... "If people keep making stupid decisions...." The context was in reference to controlling people. Admit it or not, you have Fascist tendencies.
The comparisons are opinions at best. There are so many, many more differences between the situation in the US today and Germany when Hilter took over. And between Hilter and Obama. But of course...who would circulate an email that pointed those out????
I can back up my opinions by merely linking a few articles showing things The President has said. But you are right... It is my opinion. I hope I am wrong.
I got the email from my boss... Who is admittedly a mindless Republican. I should have known better than to use it without sourcing. The lady is clearly a nutjob. BUT... I do agree with some of the stuff I said. SOME.
And I also know enough to put Normandy in France -- not England!

Of course Normandy is in France. May I ask what museum you visited? The British and Canadians referred to the Americans as "Yanks". The French generally did not.
So like you... You cannot just resist the personal dig. You are such a hypocrite. You rant and rave at Blue, yet you do this. I cannot believe I actually offered you a olive branch. Shocking that you chose not to accept.
