Medvedev, dubbed by Western press as a baby-faced man, is a big fan of music. He prefers to listen to hard rock: Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple are his favorite bands. Medvedev likes to play vinyl disks, not CDs.

Dmitry Medvedev tries to keep up his shape: he has a treadmill in his home and he regularly works out. When he has free time, Medvedev likes to play chess. As for television, he is a fan of Discovery channel.

Putin was too busy pulling the legs off small european countries to listen to vinyl.

wow, i'm just like him, except for the exercise, chess, and presidential position. I was president of my class in high school though, so that is pretty similar.

PJ, president of a class of 10 isn't all that impressive. Especially since your 'first lady' was your cousin. I know how y'all roll down souf.

This souf isn't where they sale rubbers at family reunions is it? Where small farm animals hide when chores are done? A virgin is able to outrun her brothers? Wait, that's here. Nevermind.

Won't matter anyway. Currently, Russia has a mixed (i.e., presidential and parliamentary) system, and the PM is no more than a figurehead. Putin's party has an overwhelming majority in the parliament, so he will probably just become the PM and have all the power transferred to himself again, making the president a figurehead.
