Putin is by far, one of the best and most effective leaders on the planet today. He is so bright, that he pulled off a coup d’état in front of the world without firing a shot... disguised it as a democratic election and sat back while the whole world applauded him for it and congratulated him and welcomed him aboard. Brilliant.
This is one of the reasons why I´m "shouting" communist after Putin... he might very well have been the best choice for Russia at the time, but problem is that he will not always be the best choice. At some point he needs to be replaced, and if he has not created a system, where the best man gets elected, then there is a very high risk, that it will be 2nd best man who wins...

What will happen in Russia, if Putin was to loose the next election? Would he be able to loose it?
