Born October 7, 1952 in Russia

Even though everybody in the West is always saying I'm supposed to hate this man, I just haven't seen any evidence that he's as bad as they say. I think most of them don't know what they're talking about because they haven't even been to Russia (unlike me). I will not be pressured into condemning somebody without having a reason. I don't like tyrants, but I don't see how he is any more tyrannical than any other politician. Most Russians that I've spoken to seem okay with him. Russia is supposed to be Russia. I don't want every country to be the same.
