According to Ian Kershaw's biography, Hitler was lazy and rather disorganized with the result that he was something of a "weak" dictator, inclined to yield to pressure from below ... Hitler was highly conscious of his public image. The Volkswagen, literally "people's car" designed by Ferdinand Porsche was the Nazi version of a car in every garage. Hitler also made sure that every German household received a free radio, but these were special radios made so that they could receive only the state Propaganda of Joseph Goebels. In contrasting Adolf Hitler with Napoleon Bonaparte, I find that Hitler had a much thinner skin, but it is understandable. In Napoleon's time there were no radio and newsreels, although Napoleon did have a German newspaper publisher executed for being too critical of him. If not for the war, it is conceivable that Hitler would have remained a mostly popular dictator in Germany for the rest of his life.
