Should the Weimar Republic have banned Adolf Hitler from being eligible to run for President/Chancellor in 1933, based on the fact that he was involved in insurrection in 1923? On the one hand, it could have legally prevented the Third Reich from being established and/or Hitler from coming to power. On the other hand, it would go against democracy and could be seen as dictatorial, thus making the Weimar Republic just as bad as the hypothetical Third Reich.

Bump. Given the current controversy over Trump, I wonder if anyone has any thoughts on this dilemma.
