Congratulations !  If you said Vladimir Putin...  you were correct?  You now know more about the leader of the Russian superpower than you did before. You also know more about him than most of the /american press! There is more about him however you should know.  Things that involve his use of violence and murder to cement his 13 years in power.  And this is the man that our President wants to do business with even as he opposes the US almost everywhere in the world. 

 

What's that you say?   You thought I was talking about our guy?  Well they do have a lot in common not the least being that Putin wants to be the new Czar of Russia and Obama seems to want to be the King of a brand new country called the USSA ...and that he wants Russia to love him!
