I also think that there is an expectation in Russia that leaders will be authoritarian....They simply don’t have the same DNA as Americans when it comes to politics. Our system of government isn’t for everyone.

There is that. The Russian people I have met (when I was in Russia, as a CIA Station Chief) don't really understand freedom, and don't know what to do with it.
