Hitler's main suggestions for the propagandist who want to be successful are the followings: propaganda must be addressed exclusively to the masses, therefore it must be very popular, that is, to be limited to very few points and adjusted to the lowest intelligence.

He controlled everyone’s lives by: what they did, how they did it, whom they could be with, and what jobs they could have. It got so bad to the point where he had cameras everywhere and could see what people were doing in their private lives—they did not have private lives.

The political campaigns and political fights relate to Hitler’s goals by making the Nazi Party seem like a strong party and portray Hitler as a strong leader through the use of propaganda, the SA, and through a bar fight. One of his techniques on how to use propaganda is stated in this quote “it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over” (Wiesner,346).

His charisma for speaking combined with the weak structure of Germany at the time made him influential beyond any other.

After losing the first great war which caused a major depression in the state, Nazi’s used Jewish people as a scapegoat for Germany's suffering economy and poor moral. This idea of using propaganda against the Jews tied into the Nazi ideology. Nazi ideology came to be after Adolf Hitler and others created the “National Socialist German Workers’ Party (NSDAP)”(Alpha History 1). They called this ideology that they developed ‘National Socialism’, which is now called Nazism today. This ideology was the centerpiece that the Nazi Party moved around. However, The NSDAP didn’t have a very clear expression of its ideology, the only documents that had concrete evidence were the Twenty Five points (1920), and Hitler's journal, Mein Kampf (1924). (Alpha History 1). The core beliefs of the Nazi party are as shown: “Authoritarianism, Totalitarianism, Nationalism, Militarism, Expansionism, Economic sovereignty, Traditional values, and Racialism” (BBC 1-2).
