Is that Margret Sanger?
 
Yeah, he [Hitler] was all for it however if it got rid of a "Mongolid" or polish...

So strange it is, actually before got to power, Hitler not care about it !
Only later as Martin Borman approach him about request for euthanasia for a disable child, Hitler started to support that infamous euthanasia and sterilization Program
But put that in right perspective, you have to understand:
In the 1930s world wide, people were demanding the application of euthanasia and sterilization Programs.
 
1924 Democratic National Convention - A New Seat At The Table
Fighting broke out during the convention. Catholic and Protestant, city boy and country boy, wet and dry lay fists at each other. Gone were the attempts at hospitality, gone were the feelings of unity, gone were the hopes of a Democratic in the white house.

"Hitler could not stand order's absence. If social harmony lacked, than to him everything broke down. From the Ancient Rome to Napoleonic France, Hitler's studies on nations and empires concluded for him that once states lost their morale, their death was just a matter of time." - The Great Men of American History, by Eric Foner, American Historian and author.


No one was at the podium and thus the Texan Senator went up. The audience, aghast, stared their eyes at the Austrian American, commanding the convention hall with his ever so intimidating gaze.


"Esteemed gentleman of the convention, I implore you to listen!"


The hall was silent. Somehow, the audience's subconscious sensed in the Texan the truth, or at least the proper direction headed towards there.


"Understand the brevity of the situation! We are in opposition to a corrupt and senile administration, one which implores for all the qualities of the past besides its values! We, the inheritors of Jefferson and Jackson, are failing to stand up to these cretins! Democrats! We must understand how we can win! In the past we won the solid south and at times with the charisma of the great Bryan, we have won the rural west. We have always had an appeal in the urban, industrial centers in the east but now we have been blessed with an increased voter base as the industrial North blossoms. It must be understood that the only way for a Democrat to win the white house is through the triumvirate of the south, through the rural heartland of the west and through the urban centers of the east. If we lose one of these three constituencies, we will lose to President Coolidge and his running mate Mr. Dawes. I beg Southerners and Westerners to open their hearts to their fellow democrats in the east, as we all share the spirit of Jackson and Jefferson of fighting for the common man. Without their vote we would have lost. And I implore the supporters of eastern Democracy for agreeableness and courtesy when working with your southern and western party workers. I have heard one too many taunts to feel that good will is the only strong emotion on these grounds.

We are all frustrated. Numerous white house officials for years got away with obscene crimes, and many more are freely wallowing in their sin. But we cannot turn our frustrations on each other. Instead, we must present the American people a platform they can trust. A platform for them, their families and their communities. A platform for sincerity and forthrightness. A platform for the benefit of the United States of America!"

(Senator Hitler speaking at the Convention, 1924.)


The crowd's mood was mixed. Many were delighted for the call for common sense and party unity, yet many more could not accept the other faction as their ally. McAdoo and Smith men who found Hitler's message threatening for their hold of the party assembled themselves and found a compromise candidate in John Davis, a west Virginian born lawyer viewed as a west (and thus acceptable to southerners and Catholics) was crowned the nomination. In order to ensure Hitler would not create a storm, they nominated Charles Bryan of Nebraska, brother of Adolph's mentor, for the Vice Presidency. And even without Hitler in consideration, Bryan was a good compromise candidate, as he was a progressive and came from a popular name.


Presidential Election of 1924:


The Election of '24 was an absolute mess for the Democratic party, In severe disarray, Democratic voters were anything but thrilled post the New York Convention. Instead of the compromise pleasing everyone, it pleased no one, reducing the Democratic party to just under 29% of the vote. Robert LaFollete, appealing to progressives of both parties when the conservatives dominated the them, one his home state of Wisconsin and one-sixth of the national vote. Senator Hitler noted that, "LaFollete's charisma turned him from a regional figure to a national. Charisma is the key to success in all functions of leadership, from feudal monarchies to the grand designs of a virtuous republic."

Rumblings for Hitler were omnipresent as soon as the election results were released. "The Texan was right!" many stated. The party leaders who had rejected the threatening novice realized that their exclusion of him from major political decisions was over. Although some southerners found Hitler too Catholic friendly after the speech and blamed it on his Catholic religion, followed by some Catholics who called him a traitor to his religious community for not endorsing Smith at the convention, the majority opinion on both communities was that the Texan, who time and time again was among the most charismatic and effective opponents of the Republicans in Congress, was onto something. Hitler did not leave the convention a leader of the party, but from now on no leader could dare envision excluding the Texan from the table.

Great update. I can see Texan Hitler saying that speech easily. I'll wait to see when he becomes President, and what role FDR will play. I see him, as a cabinet member, if not Adolph's running mate, but, that's your choice.
