1.15. O srsly? xD. Look at her face. This is a face of economical crysis. People like her shouldn't have power to make any decisions except what to cook for dinner. Btw, this man, who is she talking about, knows 5 languages and has a Ph.D. But even if she had a chance to interview him, she would make a decision in first 2 seconds by looking at his tie.

@elegyrulz he is much cuter than other of his opponents in candidacy :D

A picture can be worth a thousand words.

Actually this is not such a stupid poll as many claim. Unfortunately politics ARE about appearances and impressions. Not only in politics our appearances influence a lot of our daily life, from job assessment, school grades to even prison sentences all have significant influence. There are well known scientific evidence for all this. Still they should have used similar looking pictures for everyone. Not smiling Medvedev and distracted Zhirinovsky. Also who said the numbers are not fake ;)

Not necesserily just government, but well culture in general. The other media outlets have the view of the oligarchy and believe me that is the worse than anything.

yep, that's how they elect presidents in their country - by look, that is why classy obama is a president now
