Source A and B are similar in terms of Nazi and the Weimar government going against each other. Source A states " if u were called upon by the Nazis in ejecting this weak government and constructing it, do you really think that the Nazis could provide competent dictators for Germany?" The Weimar government is telling the Germans that Nazi will not make any changes even if they take over the government. Source B state" We are coming to shovel out the ineffective members and problems of the Weimar government." The Nazi is saying that the Weimar government are not doing things that helps the country, therefore they are there to replace them. This means that both the Nazi and the Weimar government downgrade each other by telling the Germans that they are better than each other.

Difference

Source A and B are different in terms of how they view the Weimar government. Source A states " The Weimar Government is thoroughly determined to deal with the poor political and economic situation in Germany." This means that the Weimar Government will try their best to help and solve the issue. Source B state" We see in the present government the main cause of our steadily increasing miseries." This means that the Weimar government is not doing things that helps the country, they think the Weimar government is useless.

They are both opposing each other and are trying to influence the minds of citizens that they want to rule by democracy. Source A mentions “ Weimar Government is thoroughly determined to deal with the poor political and economic situation in Germany” and even stated their comeback “ if you were called upon by the Nazis in ejecting this weak government and constructing it, do you really think that the nazis could provide competent dictators for Germany?” This shows how much the Weimar Government wants to rule the country and wants to rule by supposed democracy. While the Nazis view the Weimar government as wanting fake democracy “ We oppose a fake democracy.

{Difference}

They both focus on the idea of democracy. Source A mentions that dictatorship would only worsen matters. “ But anyone who thinks that all the demand for a dictatorship will make matters better is making a great mistake.” while source C states that “ we oppose fake democracy that treats the intelligent and the foolish.” This would mean that Source A, The Weimar government, wants democracy while Source C, the Nazis, indirectly wants dictatorship to rule while maintaining the image that what they seek for is democracy.

The both sources have the idea of democracy but in different matters. Source A states that"the dictator will equally be confronted by economic challenges" while source B states that" we oppse a fake democracy"

Source A shows is against having a dictator and want to habe a democratic country. Source B shows that they are opposing the fake democracy in other words the Nazis wanted a dictator.

However, sources A and B are different in terms of the parties views of each other. Source A states," do you really think the Nazis could provide competent dictators for Germany?" This source suggests that the Weimar government are doubtful of the Nazis and are sure the Nazis cannot do a better job of overcoming challenges the government faced. Source B states," we oppose a fake democracy that treats the intelligent and the foolish, the industrious and the lazy, in the same way." This suggests that the Nazis are certain that they could do a better job at governing than the Weimar government. The mistakes of the Weimar government are pointed out and the Nazis are confident that they can overcome the different political and economic challenges. Hence, sources A and B are different in terms of the parties view of each other.

Both sources are different in terms of the actions of the Weimar government. Source A states that ‘the Weimar government is throughly determined to deal with the poor political and economic situation in Germany’. This shows that the Weimar government is trying their best to help the country thrive and support the people. However Source B states that ‘we see in the present government the main cause of our steadily increasing miseries’. This shows that the Nazi party is telling us that the Weimar government is the main reason for all the problems Germany has been facing.

Both sources are similar in terms of attempting to earn the support and trust of the German public. Source A states “The Weimar Government is thoroughly determined to deal with the poor political and economic situation in Germany”. Then, in 1928, Nazi official Joseph Goebbels rebuts with “We see in the present government the main cause of our steadily increasing miseries. A vote is only a tool for us as well as for you.” Both sources tell us that they want to prove that they are capable of running Germany and are both confident parties. They both stand for the same thing; winning the votes of the Germans. Hence, both sources are similar terms of attempting to earn the support and trust of the German public.

Difference

However sources A and B are similar in terms of what they claim the other party to be. Source A states “if you were called upon by the Nazis in ejecting this weak government and constructing it, do you really think that the Nazis could provide competent dictators for Germany?” This evidence is suggesting to the German public of rethinking their decision of supporting the Nazis instead of the Weimar Government, attempting to change their minds. This question allows the Germans to really think about who they want to rule the country. Meanwhile, source B states “We oppose a fake democracy that treats the intelligent and the foolish, the industrious and the lazy, in the same way.” This evidence shows that the Nazis are putting down the Weimar Government and directly insulting them. They claim that the Weimar Government is not hardworking and not committed to being the government of Germany. These approaches are not similar in terms of their tones. While source A is asking the Germans to rethink, source B is calling out the Weimar government as snobbish dictators who do not take their jobs seriously. Hence, the sources are different in terms of what they claim the other party to be.

Both source A and B are different in terms of Nazi's capability to improve Germany. Source A states " the demand for dictatorship will make matters better is making a big mistakes". This shows that source A is questioning and denying Nazi's ability to provide competent leadership and improve Germany while source B states " we will shovel out the ineffective members and problems if the Weimar government". This shows that source B thinks their anti parliament thinking can help improve and to bring about revolutionary change to Germany, helping to make it a better country.

Both sources are similar in terms of both parties effort to win support from the citizens

Source A states that 'If you were called upon by the Nazis in ejecting this weak government and constructing it, do you really think that the Nazis could provide competent dictators for Germany?' Source B also stated ' We oppose fake democracy that treats the intelligent and the foolish' and 'We are coming to shovel out the ineffective members and the problems of the Weimar government.' Both sources wants to win the support from the citizens. They both have the same objective, but different way of dealing it. That is why support from the citizens is extremely crucial for them.

Difference:

However, both sources are different in terms of their Point of view on how the current government is dealing the crisis.

Source A states that 'The Weimar government is thoroughly determined to deal with the poor political and economic situation in Germany' and Source B states that 'We see in the present government the main cause of our steadily increasing miseries'. Source A states that the Weimar Government is trying their very best to solve the current economical crisis, but however the Nazis view as them making it worse. With one claiming that they are solving while the other claiming that they are making it worse.

Difference: Source A and B are different in terms how how they view the Weimar government. Source A states that 'The Weimar government is thoroughly determined to deal with the poor political and economic situation in germany' This shows that they see the weimar government as a good and strong competetor and is better as they would help the public and Germany to built and strengthen their weak points. While Source B states that 'they are coming to shovel out the ineffective members and problems of the weimar government.' This shows that the people of Nazi does not support the way of the weimar government and feels strongly that they are not capable of helping the germans. Hence, they are different in terms of how they view and support the weimar government.

The two sources are different in terms of how well they think they can manage the problems. Source A states "But anyone who thinks that the demand for a dictatorship will make matters better is making a great mistake" The suggests that having another party taking over would just make matters worst. Although the Weimar government knows that they are struggling to cope with the current situation, they believe that they themselves can cope with it best. Source B states "We see in the present government the main cause of our steadily inv=creasing miseries" This means that the Weimar government did not solve the problem yet. Nazi is mocking them in a way such that the nazi thinks that they could do better in managing the current problems.

Source A and B are different in terms of their views towards the opposite party. Source A states that ' if you were called upon by the Nazis in ejecting this week government and constructing it, do you really think that the Nazis could provide competent dictators for Germany?' However, Source B states'We are an anti-parliamentarian party that for good reasons rejects the Weimar constitution and its republican instituitions. We oppose fake democracy that treats the intelligent and the foolish, the industrious and the lazy, in the same way.' Therefore, this shows that Source A wants the Germans to rethink their choice and should consider the Weimar Government over the Nazi Party. However, Source B states that the Nazi Party had a list of good reasons on why the Germans should consider the Nazi party and not the Weimar as they would treat everyone fairly, no matter how hardworking they are.
