Enver Hoxha
His misrule continued far longer and went even further in reshaping his country's society.

Matyas Rakosi -  one of the worst of the Stalin era party leaders.

Zhivkov.

I'm surprised GMantis doesn't seem to have a personal grudge against him.
Zhivkov wasn't that bad. True, he reigned far too long and of course he was a dictator and committed crimes, but he wasn't anywhere in Hoxha's or Ceausescu's league. The country also developed greatly during his rule and unlike Bulgaria's current leaders, he seems to have genuinely cared about Bulgaria's national interests. Many people who were against him when he was in power, have fond memories of his rule now.
In any case, he's much better than Vulko Chervenkov (means Wolf Red and is entirely fitting), who tried very hard to be Bulgaria's Stalin.
My vote is for Vulko Chervenkov.

If Zhivkov deserves to go, Chervenkov certainly does so. After all, Stalin was worse than Brezhnev, so Bulgaria's Stalin logically was worse than Bulgaria's Brezhnev.

Gheorghiu-Dej is a good idea, but he doesn't need my vote.

Vulko Chervenkov
I would say that calling him a dictator would be flattering him. He was just the tool with which Stalin ruled Bulgaria. Not surprising that he didn't last long after Stalin's death.

Nice to see you again in this survivor.
But not nice to see you voting for an already out leader Wink
No strict rules in here, so please pick another guy !

Georgi Dimitrov
Yes, he played a positive role by standing up against the Nazis during his trial. But after that? He didn't help his co-defendants from the Leipzig trial when they became a victim of Stalin's paranoia. As head of the Comintern he did nothing but justify Stalin's bizarre foreign policy turns in grand words. Finally, when he returned to Bulgaria, a caricature of his former self, he might as well have been a robot, considering the way he implemented Stalin's will. His only streak of independence was ironically in the service of an even more anti-Bulgarian cause: the attempted annexation of Bulgaria to Tito's Yugoslavia and the forced Macedonization of part of Bulgaria's population. It's the last two that can't be forgiven and why he must go as soon as possible.

What's the difference? They sound exactly the same.
It's common in Polish to mark the same sound with more than one letter. I know Kalwejt will not like this, but most Polish orthographic problems can be solved if they switch to Cyrillic Wink

Gorbachev should be removed soon, but he's probably too popular, so Edward Gierek for now.
Oh, and this is my 3000th post Smiley
