Default Cannot imagine better president.

He always acted in the best way one could. I remember after G. Bush became president and old communists aimed for power in the Soviet Union and Gorbatcshev was arrested. Immediately France, Cuba and North Korea supported the putsch meanwhile China and other were waiting to learn more and the US, UK and Germany expressed carefully their disagreement being worried about Gorbatshev fate. R. Reagan declared on radio and this was immediately transmitted in Russia that THE RUSSIANS will not let this happen, which gave enough confidence to meaningfull people like Boris Eltsine and generals to act against the putschists.
