Now, Zelensky introduces himself. His presidential note, according to a poll conducted in late October by the Kiev International Institute of Sociology, the Ukrainian Center for Economic and Political Studies. O. Razumkov and the sociological group "Rating" represent 11.4% from those who determined the choice and who will take part in the vote. This is the second place after Yulia Tymoshenko, in which 20.7% . Zelensky overtook the current president Petro Poroshenko, who took third place – 10.3% . Theoretically, Zelensky can move to the second round. And there, who knows who the Ukrainians will choose …
The Ukrainians are tired of the promises of Tymoshenko, Poroshenko and Boyko
The experts note that the demand for new faces is. Sociological research shows that one-third of Ukrainians have not decided who to vote in the presidential and parliamentary elections. For the first time since 2012, according to the rating agency, those wishing to vote for new parties outnumber those who are willing to support the political forces represented in parliament: 46% vs. 30%. In addition, a few months before the presidential election, there is no leader of unconditional public opinion. Secondly, according to the "Rating", the level of distrust of the main actors vis-à-vis the policy is superimposed. In Poroshenko – minus 50%, Tymoshenko – more than 25%, Boyko – 23%

Simultaneously, Zelensky and Vakarchuk are only 5-6% distrustful. According to Volodymyr Fesenko, president of the Penta Center for Applied Political Studies, a large part of the population does not trust politicians. It does not matter who they represent – power or opposition. But the choice is not limited to politicians: Zelensky and Vakarchuk. The others do not know or have not shown themselves in the political context.
Ukrainian society is in a state of nervousness in the face of war and socio-economic problems. Such a crisis of mistrust of politicians has never lasted 27 years. Therefore, on personalities such as Zelensky and Vakarchuk, Ukrainians react as doctors, shampoo-lollipops,
– says Volodymyr Fesenko.
The director of the "Political Analysis Center" points out Mykola Davydyuk: the Kuchma-based generation is going away. Poroshenko and Tymoshenko – in power for twenty years, Rabinovich, Boyko … For many of them, it will be the last presidential election.
The country is ruled by people educated in the Soviet mentality. They include the state as a source of their profits and not as a machine to earn money for the country. It is necessary to build a pool of new generation staff. In part, this already exists: young deputies in parliament and in the field, volunteers and activists, journalists. But they want to eat the old generation to keep this system. Will this generation be overcome, will it be decided during the presidential and legislative elections? Otherwise, in 10 years, we will not get a new quality of power,
Nikolay Davydyuk said.
Why representatives of the show show?
Because of the fatigue of politicians who have almost all eternity in power, but who are hardly in the country what has changed for the better, Ukrainians are attentive to those who have not never had anything to do with politics. Singers, artists, athletes. They are not only popular with their successes. He strongly criticizes the actions of the authorities and the political establishment, expressing unpopular thoughts – they are afraid to speak out loud and current politicians, as this could lower their ratings.
The colonial actor Reagan ended the Cold War with the USSR 19659003] For example, Vladimir Zelensky severely criticizes by joking authorities and politicians of different camps. Svyatoslav Vakarchuk is not only a popular singer, but also a public figure known for his active position since the Orange Revolution. He was part of the Yushchenko team for some time
It should be noted that in Ukraine, there are many examples of the participation of representatives of the show or sport in political life. The most striking example is the mayor of Kiev, Vitali Klitschko. A successful athlete entered politics more than a decade ago. In 2006, Klitschko first ran for the mayor of Kiev. He then developed the party – first at Kiev level, then at 100% Ukrainian level. According to Davidyuk, Klitschko had a political school on the ground. "He has invested heavily in himself and claimed his presidency.
There are many positive examples of successful career in politics.The most famous is US President Ronald Reagan, an actor who has played in more than 50 films The Czech President – Vaclav Havel, playwright, poet and actor who, after the fall of the socialist camp, took the country out of the crisis, was a moral authority. "Iron Arni" – Arnold Schwarzenegger – twice elected governor of California
Volodymyr Fesenko stresses: in the West, citizens are actively voting for people who do not belong to politics defying traditional elites.
There is a trend for fairgrounds, people not coming from politics in many countries.In Italy, the party "Five Stars" created "analog" of Zelensky – the popular comedian "Beppe" Grillo – Giuseppe Pierrot In Slovenia, a former mayor and today Prime Minister, Marian Sharetz, was also a popular comedian. It is therefore logical that the presidential ratings of Vakarchuk and Zelensky increase. In a specific sense, Trump in his role as showman – American Zelensky,
– emphasizes Fesenko.
It is necessary to say "yes" in time.
The experts point out that for the moment, Zelensky is one of the favorites of the presidential race. His figures are higher because, unlike Varkachuk, he is campaigning. And Vakarchuk said he was not talking, or was running, "demobilized" a significant portion of his potential voters.
Vakarchuk and Zelensky have different electorates, but they can flow for each other. Probably, some of the demobilized supporters of Vakarchuk who are tired of waiting when he says "yes" show their sympathy for Zelensky. In addition, Zelensky leads a campaign, announces the new season of the series, from time to time, it presents non-standard shows in front of the public. Zelensky still does not say "yes", but specifies that he will participate in the presidential election
– says Fesenko.
Trump – American President, businessman and famous animator 19659003] As the experts point out, we do not know for now how new faces do are not good economists, diplomats. In government, success depends on the ability to organize the process, to delegate authority to the managers and to the team itself.
At the same time, Fesenko emphasizes: how will Zelensky behave in case of election victory, perhaps even that he does not know himself.
"Zelensky could become a phenomenon at the post of president and acts as a destroyer of the system, if it acts nonstandard", – says Fesenko.
