#1 Russia won't give up Tartarus no matter the final outcome of Assad-vs-Rebels in Syruh - IMO Moscow must be irked to no end at the thought of Islamist Iran planning to dev a US-style? "blue water" Navy beyond the eastern Med.

#2 Those in power in Russia want to keep their power, and they are quite happy. I am sure this is true in other ares also in this part of the world. Well, the Dem's are trying to do the same thing here. The Russians are a smart people but they have many internal problems(mafia for one). I understand they are confused about our media. Fire alarm calls going out on so many things in our news leaves them perplexed. With Iran and China I believe they need to step up their presence in the world. In my opinion Obama is ignored as is Hillary. Like Nixon, Romney should gift some limos(should he win). Does the Cadillac limo still exist?. We could turn the Russians into a strong ally but we must be strong ourselves. Not to appear weak. Obama would send DVDs of himself playing basketball in English or even a stand up comedy routine with himself. Hey if people like it he could go on a road trip.
