You don’t know that. Think positive.

In an unrelated note, Bobby “Boris” Pickett has also died, the singer of the one-hit Halloween anthem “Monster Mash”. He was 69.

Cool. A lot of Americans were born in America, but that doesn’t mean they know all the presidential candidates’ backgrounds. Who are the candidates in Russia and what are their positions? Bet you don’t know. Hardly anybody does yet. Keep a positive thought on it. Can ya?

Ditto here. I am extremely well familiar with the predominant there human type homo sovieticus, aka "homosos". This allows me to know WHAT they are without bothering to know WHO they are. To give you some idea of the power of this scientific method, here is a true story: some time ago [in the United States] my former employer was conducting an executive search for a Senior Vice President - "sweep". A large sweep's office stood empty for many months, and nobody knew who or when would come to occupy it. So, a couple months before they found their sweep, I had predicted to my coworkers the nameplate to be put on that office door. I assumed the exaggerated facial expression of prophets from bad movies, stretched my hand towards that door, and with defocused gaze muttered, "I see it... I see it... GREEDY A-HOLE!". Well, everyone laughed. Couple months later they found their sweep, and everybody had to stop laughing. I was so right that within a year they had to squeeze that sweep out - he proved to be too much even for them! No, I was NOT on the search committee, and had no informational links with them. But I knew that the sweep would be chosen on the basis of conformity to the [known to me] corporate culture - and that knowledge sufficed perfectly. Now, ponder it.
