Although Hindenburg was an old kaiser supporter, he was the president of the weimar republic. Hitler's aim was to overthrow such a republic in order to impose his fascist aims on Germany. These went against all that Hinderburg and the cabinet believed in, as these were trying to maintain a democratic system in post-war germany. When Hitler begins to become increasingly popular in Germany, the republic's reichstag of proportional representation becomes flooded with nazi representatives. These refuse to pass any of the motions put forward by chancellors appointed by Hindenburg, who is forced to impose his power of emergency decree often. Hindenburg refuses to employ Hitler as a chancellor as neither him or the rest of the government wish for him to have his way. However, without Hitler, the parliament filled with representatives of his party will never agree with the chancellor, never reaching decisions. In order to keep the democratic parliamentary system working, Hindenburg must find a chancellor that the Reichstag will agree with.
Paul Von Hindenburg putted Hitler and Chancellor and Hitler mad himself Fuhrer when Hindenburg died.
The German president, Paul von Hindenburg, detested Hitler and referred to him disparagingly as "der böhmische Gefreite" (the Bohemian corporal).
Hindenburg
On 30 January 1933 President Hindenburg appointed Hitler Chancellor (Head of Government).
He was the president of Germany before the Hindenburg was made. He helped Hitler become the leader of Germany. In dedication to him, Adolf Hitler named the Zeppelin Hindenburg.
Hindenburg kept Hitler at bay until his death in 1934. Hitler assumed supreme power at that time.
Yes he did.
Appointed as chancellor because Hindenburg thought he could control Hitler and the Nazis. Putted as leader when Hindenburg died
Hindenburg was President until August 1933 when he died of lung cancer and Hitler was able to take the position of Fuhrer. Before Hindenburg’s death, Hitler was Chancellor, not president. He was Chancellor from January 1933, when Hindenburg appointed him Chancellor. Hitler was never President, unless you count Fuhrer role as president.
