The modesty and credibility of VW Golf driving German chancellor Angela Merkel
08/23/2013
Angela Merkel drives a VW Golf for supermarket shopping from her apartment in central Berlin. Voters sense this as fairly normal behaviour of the chancellor. Voters dislike the fact that her SDP rival Steinbruck took 1.3 million euros in speaker fees in 2012. By contrast there is a sense of authenticity for the chancellor. Merkel supports setting minimum wages by industry, and is taking away many social and economic fairness issues away from the SDP. Her personal popularity is above 60% in polls taken in 2013. Even at a time when the Christian Democrats and partners Free Democrats have lost state elections, the personal popularity of the chancellor remains high. The hard work in defending the euro currency and German position favoring financial discipline coupled with flexibility in setting deficit targets, shows a chancellor with proven results as the European economies gradually recover from recession.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
