My Take
Gunther reads to me as a politician who built his power at home rather than chasing the bright lights of Berlin. Born in Kiel, educated at Kiel University, and eventually Minister President of his own Schleswig-Holstein, he is the embodiment of staying put and growing roots. I respect that. The leap to President of the Bundesrat shows the regional route can still reach the national stage. There is a grounded, unflashy competence to that kind of career that I find more trustworthy than the parachuted-in careerist, and his story is a reminder that local credibility still counts for something.
