My Take
Christian Wulff intrigues me as a study in the weight of high office. He climbed from minister president of Lower Saxony all the way to the presidency of Germany, the country's symbolic head of state, holding it from 2010 to 2012. A lawyer by training and a Christian Democrat by conviction, he reached a station few politicians ever touch. What I find compelling is less the honors, including the Grand Cross of the Order of Merit, than what a presidency demands as moral representation of a nation. Even a brief tenure at that altitude leaves a mark, and his trajectory captures a revealing slice of modern German political life.
