Another jerk. Develop mass sports. Fight for the Russian language

A regular in election races, LDPR presidential candidate Vladimir Zhirinovsky did not stand aside in 2018. His name is known to everyone and is perhaps second most popular after the name of the current guarantor. Let's figure out whether the politician can win the votes of the people and how he plans to attract people in these elections.

Biography

The future contender for the presidency of Russia since 2018 was born in Almaty in 1946. The family of his father, the Jew Wolf Eidelstein, was shot in 1941, and he himself was deported to Poland when his son was no more than a month old. The child was raised by the mother, who later found a new husband.

Vladimir gnawed at the granite of science in an ordinary school in Almaty, then at the Institute of Oriental Languages ​​at Moscow State University at the Faculty of Turkish Language and Literature, and spent two years at the University of Marxism-Leninism. In 1970 he was called up to Tbilisi for two years of service. After serving as an officer and returning to the capital, he studied law well at the evening department of Moscow State University.

The future politician was interested in legal activities. Until the age of 90, he worked as a lawyer in the famous law firm Inyurkollegiya, in the Committee for the Defense of Peace, and even in the Mir publishing house.

Since 1988, Vladimir Volfovich Zhirinovsky has declared himself as a politician at the founding meeting of the Democratic Union, but we will talk about this later.

In 1998, the politician decided to get a Doctor of Philosophy degree. To do this, he defended a dissertation entitled “The Past, Present and Future of the Russian Nation.” There was a scandal with the defense of this work when deputy Ponomarev accused Zhirinovsky of giving a bribe to obtain a doctorate. The politician responded by accusing Ponomarev of libel and suing him for 100 thousand rubles.

Wife is a candidate biological sciences Galina Lebedeva. There is a daughter and two sons, one of whom managed to be the chairman of the LDPR, and is now a deputy in the State Duma. The politician’s grandchildren study at a boarding house at Moscow State University. The family of LDPR Chairman Vladimir Zhirinovsky lives in Russia.

Registration with the CEC

Zhirinovsky is nominated as a presidential candidate by the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia (LDPR). It occupies 40 seats in the State Duma and is one of the three most popular parties in the Russian Federation. Vladimir Volfovich was registered as a presidential candidate first among the other participants in the race - on December 29 last year.

The candidate has already presented his election program and started campaigning.

Political activity

In 1988, at the Congress of the Democratic Union, Vladimir Volfovich spoke loudly about the elections and the possibilities of leading the country out of the economic crisis. Then the aspiring politician was elected to the Central coordination council. Later, he left the party for the increasingly popular opposition LDPSS, which was transformed into the familiar LDPR.

From the Liberal Democrats, Zhirinovsky ran for the post of head of the RSFSR in 1991, and was among the top three in terms of the number of votes. In the same year, he supported the idea of ​​the State Emergency Committee, and two years later - the dispersal of the Congress of People's Deputies.

From the age of 93 he worked as a deputy in the State Duma from his party. On presidential elections'96 took only fifth place, but received a respectable five and a half percent of the vote. In 1999 he tried to become the head of the Belgorod region, but only took third place.

The following year, he resigned as head of his party, giving way to his son, in order to return to the chair of a State Duma deputy. At the same time, he put forward his candidacy for the post of President of the Russian Federation from the Liberal Democratic Party and again received fifth place.

Chances of winning the elections

As you can guess from political biography, Zhirinovsky’s chances of winning the presidential election this year are scanty. Although he is trying to prepare a program for governing the country that will be pleasant for the ordinary citizen of the Russian Federation, his radical statements repel the potential electorate.

If you check the official survey and any online voting, then Vladimir Volfovich can enter the top five, but no more.

Story

40. “Fight against privileges” was the slogan of the Bolsheviks on the way to power. However, having come to power, they created even more privileges for themselves. The democrats (Yeltsin's team) did the same in the fight against the communists. This causes a negative attitude of citizens towards any type of government (the tsar, the Soviet government and the democrats of the Yeltsin period).

41. Members of the Bureau of the CPSU Central Committee clung to power, as there were many privileges: apartments, dachas, cars, studies, medicine. In the West, on the contrary, people outside power have more opportunities to improve their financial situation. It's time to remove this vicious system.

Proposals for world order

1. Conclude a global treaty on the world order.

6. Eliminate the use of violence in international relations in any form under any pretext.

7. Do not change state borders without the consent of both parties (for example: Abkhazia, South Ossetia).

8. Federalism as a universal principle for all countries. The center resolves only seven issues: defense, foreign policy, finance, transport, communications, energy, ecology.

9. The 21st century is a century of recovery from racism, colonialism, fascism, communism, religious radicalism, authoritarianism, monarchical regimes, dictatorships under any guise, one-party regimes, globalism.

10. The planet lacks the cult of family, love for children, and respect for elders. The world is now ruled by deceit, fraud and crime.

11. Humanity needs a world: multipolar, multi-structured, pluralistic, without pressure, without dumbing down, without zombies. In the digital age, all issues must be resolved through electronic voting.

Slogans

“Strong country, powerful economy, personal success!”

“Fed, well-fed, satisfied, successful!”

“Mighty, free, prosperous Russia!”

“Not a single homeless person! Not a single unemployed person! Not a single one is hungry!”

LDPR presidential candidate Vladimir Zhirinovsky presented his election program “A Powerful Leap Forward” on Tuesday.

“This is my sixth presidential campaign,” Zhirinovsky recalled at a press conference in Moscow. "You are not tired?" - the journalists asked. “We take optimism and fuel from voters, because they are the ones asking me to run,” explained the LDPR leader.

Zhirinovsky began his political career in the USSR in 1987, when he first participated in municipal elections in the Dzerzhinsky district of Moscow. Already in 1991, he took part in the first presidential elections of the then RSFSR. Therefore, the party emphasizes that the current election program reflects 30 years of political experience of the leader of the LDPR. According to Zhirinovsky himself, his program is radically different from the programs of other candidates.

One of the slogans reads: “Not a single unemployed, homeless, hungry person.” The candidate promises to reduce tariffs in the housing and communal services sector, issue coupons to the poor for free food, and make healthcare completely free. “Free dormitories, possibly free lunches for students. We will not raise the retirement age,” the LDPR leader listed. He even promises to pay for a nanny for the family if there are no free places in kindergartens.

In the field of education, the main point is to abolish the Unified State Exam everywhere and admit people to universities without exams. “And the tuition fee can be abolished, but as an incentive this can be done - the first year is free for everyone, and starting from the second year, let the poor students pay,” Zhirinovsky noted. The program does not specify sources of financing for the fulfillment of these and other election promises. Apart from the idea of ​​introducing a tax on excess income, which, by the way, is not only in the LDPR program.

Among the priorities, Zhirinovsky also named personnel work - updating the judicial, gubernatorial, and deputy corps, the candidate said. There are enough 200 deputies in the State Duma instead of the current 450, Zhirinovsky believes. Another political demand of the LDPR is to voice mistakes Soviet leadership and reconsider the results of privatization during the Yeltsin period. The LDPR leader also proposed reinstating the death penalty for a number of crimes, but immediately warned that this would not reduce crime.

The current election program reflects 30 years of political experience of the leader of the LDPR

Answering the question whether he regards the candidate from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Pavel Grudinin as a serious rival in the elections, Zhirinovsky expressed the opinion that he never prepared himself to be the president of Russia. “He’s a good capitalist, but what does the position of head of state have to do with it?” - Zhirinovsky added, recalling vague story with state farm shares and foreign accounts of the communist candidate.
