Kasparov's Subtitle, "Former Grandmaster", is incorrect. Once a Grandmaster in chess, always a Grandmaster. It does not get taken away when one retires.

This is my final advice to you, Mr.Kasparov: if you want to become a more sucessfull politician, then you should listen to more smart people like Dr.Cohen, and stop interrapting him! Or, go out of politics, don't fool the people, let a new generation of a young and better educated Russian politicians to come to the venue of the Russian politics instead! For the sake of Democracy in Russia, for the sake of the future of the Russian people!

To conclude, you and you freinds in the current Russian opposition following exactly their way, the way of the doomed Russian opposition of the 19century! Remember what Dr.Cohen told you: the future of Russia is with the strong trade-union movements! Remember how the striking Soviet coal mining workers shakened the Soviet Union in the late 1980s-early 1990s? Remember how they made possible Eltsin's arrival to the power?

As a politician, Mr.Kasparov should listen to the advices of Dr.Cohen, a renowned scholar and expert of the Russian politics. For example, about a deep abysmal existing between the current Russian opoosition and the Russian ordinary PEOPLE, what Dr.Cohen claaed "kvartirnaia politika". Mr.Kasparov, remember what we used to say about the Russian opposition of the 19th century? "Strashno daleki oni byli ot naroda"!

As a person and discussant, Mr.Kasaprov should learn some good manners of civility and respecting his opponent. He behaves like a typical Russia-Soviet macho man, constantly interapting his oponnent, unnecessarily and excessively gesturing, grimacing to show his disagreement, and debating for the sake of showing his own "rightfulness" and his oponnents' "incompetence" rather than finding a solution.

Kasparov is right bring back democracy and give Russian people the right to vote let the people decide who leads their country. Putin's regime is scandalous against it's own people. I have Russian friends and they all say the same thing.

Actually, the biggest rollback of democracy (aside from the unconstitutional banning of the Communist Party in 1991) was the shelling of the Supreme Soviet in 1993. The sham election of 1996, where Zyuganov was (fortunately but disreputably) spent out of power by the oligrachs was perhaps the apex and sadly kleptocracy has largely plateaued with depressing strength since then.

Not to mention the fact that the key power group behind Kasparov are the oligarchs who were betrayed by Putin. They put Putin in power on the assumption he would be a loyal dog; turns out he wasn't afraid to use his teeth.The Berezkhovskys of this world probably think Kasparov would be a loyal puppy. Though I'm not a big fan of his, I suspect they would be disappointed. The man DOES have principles. |
