A "Flamboyant " World Leader ?

You know the old saying,"...they just fade away".Lately, the 2016 US presidential campaign politics continues to spotlight bold and colorful personalities that wish to remain center stage in the 'Big tent'.

Check out the article at the following site http://www.nytimes.com/1984/10/15/world/20-years-later-khrushchev-is-dim-memory-for-russians.html You can read more about this historical world leader at this site, https://books.google.com/books?id=7moY9FF4raQC&pg=PA106&lpg=PA106&dq=Did+Nikita+Khrushchev+and+Leonid+Brezhnev+embarrass+the+Russian+people+?&source=bl&ots=1UVXzMdk1H&sig=A4qP25-QivBbG0VItO8m8Q2ktAE&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiQiorunezLAhUBKB4KHbsLASQQ6AEISjAJ#v=onepage&q=Did%20Nikita%20Khrushchev%20and%20Leonid%20Brezhnev%20embarrass%20the%20Russian%20people%20%3F&f=false
