Stupidity Is Not A Crime.

For 17 Years, Elections In Russia Have Followed The Same Pattern: Nobody Criticizes Putin, Nobody Runs A Real Election Campaign, The Whole Process Takes Place Quietly Over A Period Of Two Months. The Kremlin Blocks Every Alternative To Putin. He Doesn't Want A Candidate Who Will Travel Through The Country And Speak Loudly About Russia's Problems.

Politics Is Traditionally A Male Domain In Russia.

I'm Not Going To Appeal To Violence Or Aggression - Of Course Not.

No Opposition Politician Has Ever Taken Responsibility For His Or Her Election Failures.

Politics Is Traditionally A Male Domain In Russia. Until Now, Women Have Only Been Accessories. Now, Female Protest Groups Are Emerging - Not Because Men Came Up With The Idea, But Through Their Own Efforts. That's Something New For Russia.
