Det fortel oss ikkje at Michelsen var antisemitt.
Michelsen stadfestar det vi alt veit, at fordommane mot jødane var svært utbreidde på denne tida og hadde nedslag i mesteparten av folket.
Michelsens kommentar minner oss om kor viktig det er alltid å vera på vakt mot språket som berar av fordommar, og særleg fordommar som ein sjeldan tenkjer igjennom og som ligg der som tankelause puddingar.

Christian Michelsen seems to have sensed the longing when he articulated the need for Norwegians to make decisions affecting their own affairs unilaterally if need be and in spite of existing Union agreements with Sweden.
Michelsen formulated the response by claiming that: “at the same instant that the king's personal policy makes it impossible for him to form any responsible ministry, that Norwegian monarch ceases to function and with the union with Sweden based on the joint monarchy.” Simple, direct, and legalistic.
A resolution asked the Michelsen ministry to serve as a provisional government with the assumption that the Union was dissolved and the king no longer functioning as king of Norway.

As Wedel Jarlsberg had recommended, the Michelsen government opened negotiations with Prince Carl of Denmark as an alternative to the Bernadotte candidacy for the throne of Norway.
Michelsen asked Nansen to go to Copenhagen and meet with Prince Carl to convince him to accept the throne of Norway.
The demand for a Norwegian vote gave Christian Michelsen the opening he hoped for to show support for his government's actions but, more importantly, an opportunity to take the Bernadotte candidacy off the table once and for all.
