What if there were a definable Nazi Personality?

It would make it less likely that similar events can occur again. It would let the rest of humanity "off the hook." But, the search for a German National Character fell short. Nazis came in "variety of stripes." Hitler's men were more different from each other in terms of their personality than they were alike. We found no specific inclination towards violence, aggression, or sadism. However, there were personality characteristics that were more prevalent among the Nazis.
