You voted for Putin? Damn dude, Stalin was the greatest leader Russia ever had since Alexander the first. Why, did i vote for Stalin?
Because when he entered power, Russia was a peasant country with over 60 percent being involved in agriculture. When he died Russia had the bomb and half of Europe and was one of two superpowers.

He killed himself 20 million people to do it. Thats too high of a price. I'll talk more about this when I get back from work gotta run now

I think the highest guestimate is 9 million. More realistically it was around 3 or 4.
Nevertheless, how can anyone vote for one of the biggest mass murderers in history? How does that make a "great leader?"

Boris Yeltsin. Putin looks evil, Gorbatchev looked friendly, but only Yeltsin could do this:

Well i wasn't voting for him bc he killed so many ppl. And the number is 40mil not less maybe a little more. But still if you look at russians today. They are a sickening people. Death is the only cure for like 20 percent of the population. That is why I said stalin or nobody. Bc he wouldn't loose any sleep with killing people.

Writers usually aren't considered heads of state.
