Second to Last Blog
Khrushchev needed away to not only seperate himself from Stalin and his memeory, but to align himself with the person who is considered the greatest Russian since...well, since Lenin. Using this letter that Lenin had wrote about Stalin showing not only his disproval of him as a leader but as a Russian as well helped Krushchev make his own name to the Russian people as not only thier leader, but someone who allies themself with Lenin. By having Stalins body removed from the being placed next to Lenin not only solidified his role and power to the people, but weakend the allies of Stalin still hanging around. Lenin is considered a great man, aleader among leaders, and having his body displayed like it is to the people continued to show them how great he was still in the 50's.
