It is election time in Turkey. I have been watching a few rallies on TV by Erdogan. Several things struck me (although I don't know Turkish). He is very effective on the stage and conveys self-confidence. I am also struck by the massive crowds at every event. I will be surprised if they don't win this time around too. But there was something else: the interaction between the leader the crowd really reminded you of fascist rallies. I thought that you should know.
