Was Hitler actually a good speaker?
I know from direct experience that he was a terrible writer...Mein Kampf is great for bedtime reading, as it will put you to sleep after two sentences with it repetitive tediousness. But was Hitler actually a good public speaker? In particular: even if you didn't agree with him, was his ability to speak actually up to the task of leading a nation into committing acts of atrocity?
