    Russian politics suck. Not only Putin controlls the entire political system like a dictactor, but the main political parties are all a bunch of ultra-nationalist and ultra-statist pigsties. If the communist party or the so called " liberal democratic party " would the elections, they would be much worse then Putin and the world would be fucked.

    I actually agree, that was possibly the most epic campaign ad I've ever seen in my life. I wish that was the commerical for YouTube Ads, I would actually postpone my video to watch that. Does Putin have an ad out yet?

    Russian politics doesn't really suck, well at least it ain't laughable like the politics in America. Not sure how Vladimir Putin controls the entire political system like a dictator, although he does have influence in other parties and yes he has been a corrupt bigot to keep himself in power, but hopefully the communist party of the Russian Federation led by Zyuganov should win the elections, well you know what, maybe, but having Putin in power isn't going to be good for Russia.

    Putin is not going to play fair and I do believe he will win. However unrest will only continue to grow.

    Punishing corruption is a good thing. You'll have to persuade me on the "bourgeois".

    How is she a teacher, it seems like she knows the basic outline of something and then she just fills in the rest with whatever she wants.

    This is troubling. It seems there are no good options in that election. Communists, or Putin? Choice between the lesser of two evils, I suppose. I would have to with Putin. At least he has them going forward. The Communists would just take things back to the old USSR. And if there is some kind of Civil War, NATO/UN would need to intervene. Russia has a lot of WMDs missing from 1991 already. With a Civil War, who knows what could happen?

    It doesn't matter who I support, but who the Russia People supports. And right now that's who the Russian people supports, Putin or the Communists.
