BERLIN - Give us back Guttenberg, at least has been honest and consistent resigning, and still is a good politician and capable like few others. That's the message German public opinion, and especially young people, who polls hot social networks and re-launch the day after the shock resignation of the 'minister script', the most popular politician in Germany, which yesterday threw sponge has also waived parliamentary immunity and has also made available for criminal investigations of allegations of plagiarism in his doctoral thesis.
The sources are unexpected, and reveal something interesting on the soul of the collective German: If a politician is capable in government, is essentially the message, it is worthwhile to forgive him for a past mistake, misconduct, but not sin capital. Let's see: according to a survey of Ard, the first public television network has always been harsh and critical toward the government and Establishment, 72 German hundred think it's fair to call the young baron in the Bavarian government.
According to a survey conducted by the NTV news network, supporters of Guttenberg Germans are even 86 percent. And to make matters worse, on Facebook site has been created called 'Wir wollen Guttenberg zurueck' (ie, translated, 'WANT Guttenberg'). And within hours he has collected more 425mila accessions.
Baron Karl-Theodor zu Guttemberg, dynamic and popular Bavarian aristocrat, 39, star of the youth center, yesterday resigned as a minister and parliament, thus also losing the immunity because overwhelmed by accusations of plagiarism. "I've always loved to fight, but are at the limit of my ability, I will accept any damages or even criminal," he said.
The revelations of the Sueddeutsche Zeitung on his doctoral thesis copied wholesale from many sources and without quotes, had been fatal. Before opposition and media, then also the sources of the conservative majority had attacked him. Ethical rigor above all else, is a habit and a constitutive value of postwar German democracy.
But TV and surveys tell us that social networks seem to the public, and especially for young people, do not overdo it. The excessive formalism in the application of penalty, even against those who seem capable and clever, is not unconditionally accepted by the citizens. Years from now, after a pause of reflection and atonement, Baron Guttemberg could then return with a good chance in the first row in the top German politician.
Perhaps the dream of one day becoming chancellor after Angela Merkel, as allocated by time (before the plagiarism scandal 'copygate') by German media could come to seem feasible. In a functioning democracy, the surprises are often endless. Come what may turn out, compared with Italian politicians insensitive to the sense of justice and often insulting to the judiciary and the Constitution, Guttenberg remain in the history of the European Union as a self-confessed know that look good from repentant clean.
