Wonder will this kick off a run of hits Two of Gorby's Premiers/Prime Ministers alive, Liz and other Cold War leaders, but I think Carter is the last major one... The remaining Premiers are Nikolai Ryzhkov (1929, 1985-1991) and Ivan Silayev (1930, 1991). Ryzhkov is still active and a current Senator. Last time I checked, Silayev hasn't been seen in a while, and he already has a grave waiting for him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
