My Replacement
MeDear Raenelle,
I am writing to you on my death bed. It may seem sudden to most of my people, but I have known. I am letting you know beforehand, my friend, that Trotsky and Djugashvili are the chief contenders to replace me. I have no opinion of Trotsky at the moment, but of Djugashvili I have many.
Djugashvili is a man who knows what he wants and will do everything in his power to get it. He may have studied to be a holy man in his youth, but times have changed. The revolution has turned him into a mad man! He is taking advantage of the system. I know not the plans of this man. Perhaps he will change for the better, or perhaps he will take a turn for the worse and put people in positions they are not qualified to work.
Only time shall tell.
Sincerely Yours,
Lenin
Very cool! I like the way you've gotten inside Lenin's head. I'd like to see some information about what is going on at ground level though...for instance, the impact on the people and the country itself. I'm looking forward to reading your other entries :)
