Charisma & Daemonia

“Only a storm of hot passion can turn the destinies of peoples and he alone who bears it within himself can arouse passion.” Who wrote these words? “I experienced an exaltation likened to a religious conversion.” Who spoke these words? 1. Adolph Hitler in “Mein Kampf” 2. Kurt Ludecke in 1922 after hearing Hitler speak. With both charisma and daemonia, leaders like Hitler, Julius Caesar and Napoleon (and now Obama for some liberals?) fill the role of prophet for their followers.
