It is something. The dangerous message That the president passed is that in his view some partys can't be part of the government since they are not completetly pro Euro and don't agree with the austerity measures, the privatizations of a lot of public services. If you can change parties but you can't change the political agenda then you no longer have a democracy. Anyway we're not even talking about radical changes since the most left-wing parties would be the weakest part of the coalition. I for one think this possibility of ps cdu and be forming a coalition would be a possibility to form a more balanced government.

"the most left-wing parties would be the weakest part of the coalition". Nope. Their votes would be as necessary to govern as the ones from the major party. Without them the coalition would break apart. It would be just a matter of time till they show their power.

That would be a more compelling argument if it weren't for the fact that he's doing the normal thing of calling on the largest party to form the government. Yes, he gave a partisan speech, but that doesn't make his decision anything out of the ordinary.
