On March 4th, Russians will take to the polls to decide the leader of their country for the next six years. The presidential elections in the Russian Federation have been the subject of speculation over the past few months, sweeping the headlines over the world, as protesters have been trying to imitate the recent successes in the Arab Spring type protests for change. The political situation that leads up to the election on Sunday is much more difficult to understand than the average person thinks. Russia is a country in which can find only five prominent candidates for the presidential election. The strong Vladimir Putin, communist Gennady Zyuganov, loud spoken Vladimir Zhirinovsky, Sergey Mironov, and billionaire tycoon Mikhail Prokhorov, all are in the race for president of the Russian Federation.
