Recently there has been protests over the fairness in the Russian elections. Take a look at one of the campaign ads Putin put out to sway young Russian voters. They certainly make American campaign ads look very bland. Some people may have objections because it cheapens the election process or ruins the "sanctity of elections." Any reactions?

Vladimir Putin's Provocative Campaign Ads

That has to be one of the most racy campaign ads I have ever seen. I'm trying to understand what exactly was the purpose of this video? There's no message and it certainly cheapens the election process and ruins the sanctity of elections. Whoever suggested this video should be asked what exactly he was trying to achieve.
