Le Pen is a more interesting one because Le Pen has taken two generations of the same family to get to the cusp of power.
The question is, will it take two generations of Germans to get to the cusp of power?
I'm not saying that the German post-war, post-unification settlement is over.
But what I'm saying is that if you think this is the beginning of some process, that the AFD is the coming movement in Germany, then of course what you will find is a significant groundswell of German opinion, which if they vote for the AFD will have to come to terms with the AFD's anti-European message.
I think certain people in Germany are voting for the AFD as a protest vote.
I think they're voting it as two fingers to Berlin, two fingers to the elite.
But ultimately, if you vote nationalism and if you vote nationalist...
At the end of the day, you will have to support or come down on one side of the fight between the nation and the super national institution, the EU.
And at a certain stage, that fight will have to be had.
And if you think now, it's the beginning.
then you would be sitting in Brussels and you would be thinking as an EU Eurocrat, this is maybe the beginning of the end for our position as being the voice of Europe.
Because what we're seeing in the voice of Europe is there is no voice of Europe.
There are many different Europes.
There's many different languages.
And the AFD in Saxony-Anhalt have actually...
there are many different dialects, John.
So we leave with the dialectization of the European Union.
That is what we are seeing here in Germany.
It's a fascinating moment.
I think it's a significant moment.
