Scholz as a candidate for Chancellor: In this election, everything is different

parties to install a double-top, sooner or later, an alpha animal. Also in the SPD now. Saskia esque and Norbert Walter-Borjans, were not destined, at the very top of its game. Neither in the Cabinet nor in the group, they play a dominant role. For a Chancellor candidate, that you have found in the case of Walter-Borjans, even to themselves, they are not suitable.

A party that fights for the Status of a people's party, was not just the thrust force that she desperately needs. The leadership vacuum that left the choice of the double-top behind, had to quickly be filled.

Perhaps it is a blessing in disguise, now that alpha and Chancellor candidate to fall together. It was not a very well thought-out process, the views of candidates for the office of the government to put a competition in front of the nose, the claims in the competition for the party presidency, also, Scholz is a Democrat, not a upright social. Scholz should be prevented after the resignation of Andrea Nahles, although the Hand was that he is for the Chancellor candidacy to be the first choice.

Each week, after the election of the party Chairman, passed a week too much to cover to give the impression Manager, Scholz should be prevented. Especially when the questions have been answered to the Chancellor candidacy with the note on it, it would only led once in the countryside up and down the country talking about it, because who the or the Right. And even in times of Corona, in which the Vice-Chancellor has become so popular as never before. Yes, who should be candidate for Chancellor?

The nomination came just in time

Scholz threatened to be a head shorter before he had even filed a claim. The Lars klingbeil and the party Chairman have set just in time for an end.

Scholz will have a hard time to do so, as the whole party as a woman and a man standing behind him. For a SPD Chancellor candidate, this is nothing New. Angela Merkel had also, therefore, an easy game, because the candidate of the SPD was weakened at the moment of his nomination irrevocable. Only in the case of Martin Schulz, it took a little longer. Scholz is in need of an ally, and spared him this fate. This could be Kühnert, the irony of the story, Kevin.
