    I reply to my own thread since no one talks about this??!??!?

    Putin plays to the crowd as he prepares presidential return - Europe - World - The Independent

    "Mr Putin is eligible for another two six-year terms, meaning he could be in power until 2024."

    Russian presidential poll in March | Pakistan | News | Newspaper | Daily | English | Online


    The farce in Russia with no one opposing the modification of the Russian constitution so that Putin can have presidential post through two terms of two six-year terms?!?

    But, no Russians bring this up here? Maybe the mod will censor me? Who owns MR? I am afraid of all these police states all over so-called 'democratic states.' But, no one talks about his on any forum anywhere. Why?!?

    Russia has no one criticizing this although finally some Russians recognize the deceit and manipulation (read the articles above) but since Putin's mafia and money changers control the media, only a small fraction is expressed and escapes.

    I read here of Republican Americans and those wanting more Government so I wonder about humankind. Stupid people who pursue the politicians who destroy their countries so they/you reward them by granting them your right of voting?!? It is sad no one speaks for Russia. At least, the USA has Ron Paul and the UK has Nigel Farage. Who does Russia have?!? No one. Russians are used to theft, deception and manipulation or maybe the media will not report on any critics but at least, where is anyone in the Russian parliament demanding transparency and accountability? The Russian mafia would kill him/her?

    You will be censored only if you engage in personal attacks or insult someone here.

    I just blew coffee down my nose. Thanks for that.

    Good grief.

    Man, the whole Russian Internet is awash with anti-Putin sentiments. Where have you been looking?
    Send me a PM if you need me.
