<<And I think in his interview his down to earth answer about his ability to bring democracy to Russia was very self-deprecating. I certainly didn't detect any of the political bluster and rhetoric you get from the politicos>> Lebed reminds me of a certain Russian political figure that was on 20/20 many years ago. A very critical and outspoken man by the name of Yeltsin... He may be the best bet for Russia, certainly a better road than anyone else can take, if anyone can take any road after Yeltsin.

Lebed is a pragmatic man, and rather low key. I think his chances will be as good as Cernomyerdin to win he election. He is no friend of Zyuganov and Zhironvoski. I he wins, he will rule alone, and he has the army behind him. I won't be suprised once in power he becomes a dictator, and Russians wont mind, as long he pays the state pensionors, and puts plenty of Vodka, Makhorka, and Potators, and Khelb, free or very cheap, and plentyful! Ron, we in the West have a distorted vision of Russia seen through silly CNN eyes. Russia is not Moscow, and St. Petersburg. Russia is thousnads upon thousands of small villages that go dot the land from Konigsburg to Nakhodka! They don't care about Mercedes cars and Benton. Kind regards, Yaacov
