Communist Leader to Seek Presidency in 2008

Russian Communist leader, Gennady Zyuganov, will be seeking the 2008 Presidential nominee. This will be Zyuganov's third bid for the Presidency.

I know that I am going to get shit on for this, but maybe it would be a good thing for the Russian people if he did win. (Before I get treated like Dutch porn, hear me out.) The population of Russia is falling (as I posted earlier), social services are almost non-existant, health care is in ruins, domestic terrorism is spiraling out of control, and the once rich barrons of the country are now the super-rich tycoons while the common worker remains poor, all under the banner of democracy.

At least under the Communist Regime, there was a health care system, minimal to non-existant domestic terrorism, the rich were those in the government, the population steadily rose, and the country was a world power.

I have said this before and I will say it again: "Democracy is a great political system, but it does not work for every culture. " So, as we in the West applaud ourselves for spreading Democracy across the globe, we watch these countries tear themselves apart. Are we really doing these people a favor?

I just do not see it.
