Comrade Bob is correct in the sense that we need a SOCIAL revolution. A 
political revolution is not in the agenda because the capitalists are 
already in power. We need to precise some slogans. He said that we should 
rise the demands: Down with capitalist ministers! No to stalinists 
ministers!
In 1917 the Bolsheviks wanted to unmask the conciliators demanding them to 
break with the bourgeoisie. That is why they demanded to the mensehviks and 
Socialist revolutionaries to expell the 10 capitalist ministers and to 
create a soviet-base government.
In 1996 it is the capitalist forces led by Yeltsin and Lebed who run the 
government. We are not only for the downfall of the capitalist ministers but 
also against the entire regime.
We should oppose the Zyuganov's CPRF conciliation with Yeltsin; his attempts 
to create a national unity government with him and, in that sense, we should 
be against the integration of "communist" ministers in the bourgeois 
cabinet. 
We are demanding the CPRF to organise a fierce opposition with working class 
fighting methods (strikes, factory occupations, mass demonstrations, etc.) 
against restoration. Zyuganov's moderate policies facilitated Yeltsin 
victory and consolidation.
