Wofür steht Horst Köhler? Horst Köhler war von 1990 bis 1993 als Staatssekretär im Bundesfinanzministerium für internationale finanzielle und monetäre Beziehungen zuständig und handelte in dieser Funktion die Verträge über die Wirtschafts- und Währungsunion mit der DDR aus. Horst Köhler fällt in der Reihe der bisherigen Bundespräsidenten eindeutig aus dem Rahmen. Indem Merkel Horst Köhler aus dem Hut zauberte, bezog sie eindeutig Stellung auf Seiten des äußersten rechten Flügels der Wirtschaftsliberalen, der sich damit auf dem Weg zur Macht in die Führungsposition schiebt. www.wsws.org /de/2004/mar2004/kvhl-m10.shtml   (2544 words)

my two cents -+- Weblog von Stefan Freimark -+- Tagebuch im Web Horst Köhler, würde er von der Bundesversammlung gewählt, wird nicht nur von Hans Filbinger gewählt, sondern noch von ein paar hundert weiteren Leuten. Mit dem Namen Horst Köhler kann ich noch was anfangen, er ist mir aus meiner aktiven Zeit als Bankkaufmann ein Begriff, da er ja im Jahr 2000 an die Spitze des Internationalen Währungsfonds (IWF) berufen wurde. Etwas ungewöhnlich bei Horst Köhler als Bundespräsident wäre, dass er ein Mann aus der Wirtschaft ist, weniger aus der Politik. www.my-two-cents.de /politik/inland/bundespraesident   (2544 words)
