May: With his Vita as a newcomer, and a newcomer on the political stage, Carsten Meyer advertises-Heder offensive, some even say flirtatious: “I’m not a politician,” says the 58-Year-old. For months, he works only to a destination: first, the CDU-mayor after the end of the war to the Bremen city hall, and thus head of government of the smallest German Federal state.

The political career of a successful Software entrepreneur is just a good year old. In the spring of 2018, he joined the CDU and Bremen’s largest opposition party, heaved the newcomers in October with a score of 100 percent immediately as the top candidate on the list 1. Also in the manageable Bremen, a fast-paced career.

This is the Two-Meter man with a striking fully bald head and a goatee anything other than a typical CDU-man. His father was in the FDP, the liberals would probably have may well be his political home. And who CMH “well-known Carsten Meyer – Heder – short” in the 1980s, would have him located pretty far to the left. “I’ve been in the adolescent years for sure the one who has fulfilled the prototype of a CDU voter,” he admitted in his letter of Introduction to the party in January 2018.

Otherwise, separated the Hippie with shoulder-length hair and a full beard, playing the drums and for years in a 10-WG in Bremen’s scene-district “district” lived, much of the world of the young Union.

That he needs to learn in politics, much, know, the father of three school-age children living in a blended family and second marriage is married. Free Talk isn’t his thing. But he was – like most politicians – coach, to be a saddle fixed in statements and appearances. The CDU, he agreed a lot of courage to have a newcomer like him on the shield lifted. Knowledge gaps Meyer-Heder power in the election no secret, but almost a virtue. Frankly, he admits, to be in many fields – education, social Affairs, Internal security – still not able to.

The 58-Year-old is the founder and managing partner of the 1,000 employees count the Bremen-based IT company, team neusta. The leadership he gave to 2018 of long-standing colleagues. Also, a policy he sees as a community performance. The lack of team work in the red-green government is one of his main points of criticism. “I have therefore chosen as the top candidate and to fight together with the CDU for this political “Reset”,” he writes on his website. “I want to be mayor.”

The election goal is to be the strongest force, Sieling. But also, the CDU Challenger, Meyer-Heder, who wants to be with his party, the strongest force in the Bremen state Parliament, shows the survey values to be dissatisfied. “There’s more to come,” says the first-time in the previous year, the policy changed entrepreneurs. To the output target of “30 percent plus X” hold on to it anyway.
