In the late 80-ies - in the beginning of the end of the epoch of socialism -
I wrote about sugary texts as a type of ideological socialist texts. Seems
not only in SF time may go backewards.
Some of you may be aware of the famous letter to the Presidents of the
Russian Federation Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin (October, 16th 2007) :
"Russia needs your talent of the statesman, your political wisdom" etc.
Is it only typical of socialist discourse? What may be equivalent to this
type of texts in American discourse? Have anybody studied such kind of
rhetoric?

P.S. I admire Nikita Mikhalkov as the director of great movies.
P.P.S. And certainly I am a loyal Russian citizen.
