My respect is for Kramnik.
He shows genuine respect for a real reunifying world championship event, and plays to make it happen.
He has faced a barage of unfair behaviour not only from the Topalov camp - also from the committee who run the tournament.
At every stage he seems to have done the right thing.
He has been abused, and most players in his shoes would refuse to play on. Imagine fischer in this situation - he would have curled up in a ball and cried. Fischer never defended his title. Winning a title is comparitively easy compared to real defense.
Kramnik plays on.
Game 5 still stands as a fofeit by him, of course he wants that overturned, - yet he goes on and still plays chess.
King Kramnik!

At least, I admit my mistakes though! Now, that's American, right?! hehe But, don't judge American citizens by our politicians! Please! I beg you! Just like I know Russian citizens can be very warm people! Look at Boris Spassky for goodness sakes.
Silly boy, I know mylegends, ever heard of honourable Max Euwe! I think we in the Netherlands has more to earn !! Think about it! Just look at the behavior of your President B.?! No content, no braines!!

Kramnik's moves match mostly with Fritz9! Topalov thinks he was cheating, and I think - now that Topalov has crushed him (a Kram without the Sham of Fritz9) in Game 7 that things will turn a little brighter for Veselin! Cheers Topy! Don't let the Russians take that title!

Fischer is hardly a decent role model either though is he?
From Wikipedia:
He has denied the "Holocaust of the Jews," has announced his desire to make "expos[ing] the Jews for the criminals they are [...] the murderers they are" his lifework, and has argued that the United States is "a farce controlled by dirty, hook-nosed, circumcised Jew bastards." In ...[text shortened]... pologize to the Arabs, kill off all the Jews over there in the bandit state of Israel."
