Persuasive Essay

Adolf Hitler
By: Brandon Hunter

What is one of the greatest dictators that you think ever lived? It can be one of many different dictators. To me, I believe that a German dictator named Adolf Hitler was the best dictator that has ever lived. Hitler was just a misunderstood individual. Many people think that he was an evil person, but he wasn’t. One reason why I think that he was a great dictator is because of his political views. Another reason is that he was a big threat to the entire world if he went any further than he already did. Finally, he was able to take over a race without a good education.

Adolf Hitler was a great dictator because of his political views. I don’t see Hitler as someone that didn’t like Jews so he did whatever he could to either enslave them or kill them, but as someone better. The way that I see is that he wanted a Utopia, or a perfect society. To do this he wanted only a certain group of people to be in his Utopia. He only wanted cocasion people with blonde hair and blue eyes to be in his Society because he thought that they were the perfect people. Even though he was wrong about it, to me his views were actually pretty good. His idea was good, but the steps that he took to get there was extremely evil and uncalled for.

If Hitler had gotten any further than he already did, he could have possibly taken over the world. He had already taken over Germany single handedly. He had got a group of people to follow him also known as the Nazis. The Nazis were unlike Hitler, pure evil. Hitler didn’t just want any Jews in Germany, but also in the world. If he didn’t kill himself due to WWII, he would have first conquered Europe, then the United States, then the rest of the world.

Adolf was able to conquer a race that was in Germany without a good education. He was never very good in school. His dad was threatening him about his grades, but that didn’t help his grades. His mom gave him encouraging words and used her persuasive talents to try to talk to him in getting better grades but that didn’t work either. When he turned 15, he had enough; he had persuaded his dad into letting him drop out of school. Even without his education, he was able to do what he did. He may have been illiterate, but he wasn’t stupid.

Adolf Hitler was not a bad person, but a good person that had good views but took the wrong path to get there. He was just another misunderstood human being.  He did kill and enslave a group of people, but it was all for something that he thought was good. I believe that Adolf Hitler was actually one of the greatest dictators that has ever walked on the face of the earth.
