You know the great con that they suckered poor saps like Nobama into is the idea that there are two political parties in the U.S., there aren't, throughout my lifetime, fifty odd years the American voter hasn't had any more choice than the average soviet voter, the only difference is at least the commies were honest about it, you got to choose which commie you wanted in charge, where as in the U.S. there's this pretence that there was a difference between the Democrats and the Republicans, there isn't, it's the same party, it represents exactly the same interests.
I suppose it's lucky for the U.S. that the ruling interests are better at economics than the Russians were/are but other than that there's not really any difference.
