sorry, I should explain, he became a member of the FDP, when they were still part of the Social Liberal Coalition after the 1980 election.

As I said earlier, there used to be two "wings" of the party, the social-liberals and the economic-liberals. Currently the economic liberals have the stronghold and the others left to join the Greens and the SPD

The FDP had been in power as a Coalition partner since from 1961 to 1998 - swaping to SPD and back to CDU  in 1969 and 1982 respectively.
