Last time we touched upon some of those who wish to become President of the Republic of Armenia, who once or several times tried to become the President of Armenia, but failed, and I think it will fail again, because those whom we touched upon in the past, do not have the appropriate ratings. They definitely do not have it at this moment.
Should they the appropriate rating, it would be still difficult to becomes a president for everyone in Armenia from big to small have already realized that to be “elected” for a president of Armenia you should have a little (very little) rating, and many (too many) leverages and money.
In other words, those who believe that Robert Kocharyan and Tigran Sargsyan have no chance of becoming president of Armenia, are sadly mistaken, and likewise mistaken are those who do not see the fight between the two has already begun and it is going to heat up, not matter whether Serzh Sargsyan will extend his presidential term until the end or not.
These two being almost equal chances at this moment are directly dependent on geopolitical relations; more specifically speaking, from the size the superpower, Russia or the West, over Armenia at the moment, too.

However, no matter how Levon Ter-Petrosyan puts him out of the presidential campaign, he continues to be considered the main contender for the office of president of Armenia by certain segments of society, and if the messages of the first president reach a goal, and a certain number of rich people appear beside him, Ter-Petrosyan will again be considered an actual and main contender, regardless of his age.
There is an issue of age for Nikol Pashinyan, as well, but with the opposite sense. Nevertheless, it is possible that the issue of change of generation suddenly becomes urgent, and Nikol becomes quite real contender. In any case, he also will have a problem of huge finances and wealthy patrons.
Arthur Baghdasaryan also, I think, would not be totally against becoming a president of Armenia, especially when he has no problem with the age nor the finances, but judging from the fact that recently Arthur Baghdasaryan is less stoned, it can be assumed that his chances are not particularly great.
We have not forgotten Gagik Tsarukyan, or rather, we can not forget. And if at the decisive moment he again forgets about himself, I think, those beside him will remind him about him. Only it is not clear whether at the decisive moment Tsarukyan would personally become involved in the presidential campaign, or he will prefer to patron his preferred candidate and make him president.
Questions are many, and my assumptions are many and varied, and maybe you can blame me that I give too much importance to financial potential of presidential contenders, and in the same way I can be accused for giving too much importance to position of powerful countries in the election of president of Armenia, but those opposing me would mainly be those who signify the circumstances of finances and power more than your humble servant.
However, what I wanted to say does not end with this and this much, because the struggle of those dreaming to become the fourth president of Armenia is just beginning.
