Free Democratic Party

Strongly agree

Yes

The Free Democratic Party (FDP) generally supports more direct democracy and has advocated for the direct election of the President in the past. For example, in 2009, the FDP called for a constitutional amendment to allow for the direct election of the President. However, this issue is not a top priority for the party, and they have not consistently pushed for it in recent years.

Disagree

No

The FDP has shown some support for the idea of direct presidential elections, as mentioned in Answer 1. However, they have not been strongly opposed to the current system, where the President is elected by the Federal Convention. Their focus on other issues and lack of consistent advocacy for direct elections suggests that they do not strongly disagree with the current system.

Very strongly disagree

Neither, the role of President is redundant and should be removed

The Free Democratic Party has not advocated for the removal of the role of President. They recognize the importance of the President as a representative figure and a check on the government's power. The FDP's focus on direct democracy and their past calls for direct presidential elections indicate that they see value in the role of President and would strongly disagree with the idea of removing it.
