by undermining the options, inflating the accomplishments. by the article that robtard listed it seems that the only potential candidate that will succeed putin is one of his own choosing. she said most of the electorate only get the government channel and putin controls that. it would be like winning the election by controlling almost all of what is heard and known about the opponent. that's how I read the article

You just described the Democrats in the US, though. They control almost all of Hollywood and the mainstream media.
And the words I said before still apply:
"...a lady who thinks she's the best candidate in Russia to beat Putin but admits she doesn't stand a chance. And she's extremely and openly critical of Putin. And she compares her celebrity appeal to Trump, too. She's also liberal, as she puts it.And she's not dead.
How does that prove it is rigged? I'm reading this as you making a strong case for why it's stupid as hell to think the system is rigged in Putin's favor."
We talk about Russian people that end up dead for opposing Putin or having problems with Putin. And it's seen as good. But why do we mock people for pointing out the same things about the Clintons?
there are conservative and liberal media outlets all throughout
the political spectrum even foreign press that is deemed less biased is readily available.
I don't know who thinks its good for "Russian people that end up dead for opposing Putin or having problems with Putin" or the Clintons. I just wanted to chime in on how I think elections and popular opinion can/are and is rigged.
What's strangely odd, some of the same people who went on and one about the "Clinton Body Bags" (aka Clinton Dead Pool, aka Clinton Death Count, where the Clintons have supposedly murdered people who opposed, wronged them and/or stood in there way), grasp to see a connection between people who criticism Putin and then being mysteriously poisoned, dying of 'naturally occurring' ruptured organs while in state custody or somehow committing suicide via shooting themselves twice in the back of the head.

Correction: Democrats helped by running a toxic candidate and then acting like utter lunatics after losing 🙂
Democrats helped, by ignoring their own rules and stonewalling Sanders. And then arguing to a judge they can break their own rules, because they're a private corporation that doesn't answer to the will of the people. (Which a judge agreed.)

Firstly, thanks for posting respectfully and staying engaged. You're a great addition to these parts. Welcome!
And you're absolutely right. If it's not right for Putin to do it, it's definitely not okay for the Clintons to do it. 👆
Also, I agree that elections are often a farce. It's just a trickery game: who can trick the electorate better than the other. Some are genuinely good politicians. They are rare.
