2 Tough Questions..

If I'm not mistaken, I was under the impression Hitler received an Iron Cross 2nd Class for rescuing an injured officer and a 1st Class for capturing some French soldiers (which the Nazi propoganda machine later exaggerated).
 
I voted yes and B, I stand by that. Beethoven was probably autistic and I don't care for that type of music anyway. Plus Churchill was awesome.

Wasn't he also a messenger - a job with one of the highest death percentages?

I'm not sure we will ever know for certain, both "sides" past and present have their reasons for their "versions". There has been some supposed evidence recently found that suggests that he was never awarded any medals and was nothing more than a message runner who was at no time under fire or near the front. As I say though, I doubt we'll ever know which version is the correct one.

To begin with he was. I think he was a messenger when he came across the officer.

Still, he was clearly fanatical throughout - nothing to do with his alleged diet although it may have been somewhat causal to him being awarded the 1st Class IC due to being willing to stick his neck out a little more.

Racist, yes. Evil, moot.

The cynic in me says that it's probably the latter and it's all propoganda.
 
Beethoven was the 3rd child, not her 8th - and at that time infant mortality was extremely high, so at the time, I wouldn't advise a woman to have an abortion, no.

Hitler was vegetarian for health reasons. He never had an extramarital affair because he was never married. He had liasons with some women who died in odd circumstances though. He enjoyed an occasional beer? So he drunk as well?

Candidate C: Has several health problems, drinks beer, women he has had sex with end up dead in strange circumstances.
