Vladimir Putin has announced a referendum to modify the Russian constitution. Here is an old Soviet joke, recycled and updated, that is making the rounds in Russia now:

Вопрос на всенародное голосование –

Вы не против изменения Конституции РФ, чтобы Владимир Владимирович Путин остался правителем России на всегда?

Варианты ответов:

1. Нет, не против

2. Да, не против

Translation

Question for the popular referendum –

Are you not opposed to changing the Constitution of the Russian Federation so that Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin remains the ruler of Russia forever?

Answer Options:

1. No, I am not opposed

2. Yes, I am not opposed

As we are nearing Soviet Union 2.0 (and yes, some old Soviet jokes become more and more relevant with time) - I'll try to avoid any comments on this. (Or may be not, but well... sometime it looks like it).
