It contained his ideas for what he wanted Germany to become under the Nazis. His national fame had become such that Mein Kampf became a best seller. An ideological point was a system where one man would be in charge. Another policy was an anti-semitic policy. Hitler & the Nazis did not hide they were racist. He made a link between Jews and Communists. 6 of 6
