The time-dependent variational principle for many-body trial states is used to discuss the relation between the approaches of different molecular dynamics models to describe indistinguishable fermions. Early attempts to include effects of the Pauli principle by means of nonlocal potentials as well as more recent models which work with antisymmetrized many-body states are reviewed under these premises. Keywords: Many-body theory; Fermion system; Molecular dynamics; Wave-packet dynamics; Time-dependent variational principle; Statistical properties; Canonical ensemble; Ergodicity; Time averaging
