Talk:Wir sind das Volk

Removed POV from main article:

''The word Volk has many connotations in Germany, and has been used many times to rouse Germany's population to their feet. Its most notable users are Adolf Hitler with his Nazi slogan Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Führer (One people, one empire, one leader) and Helmut Kohl, who redoubled his efforts to re-unite Germany using the word Volk countless times to encourage the much craved Reunification in 1990.''

Volk can be associated with people, nation (as in a nation of people), populace, or the public. As an example, "Volk der Apachen" would translate as "Apache Nation". It is "just" a word in German, and associating it with above context creates a meaning it does not have in reality, and does not make much sense to a native speaker.
