ahmadinejad has been at odds with ayatollah khamenei. but khameini, as supreme leader, is more powerful than the president. he appoints heads of many posts in the military, the civil government and the judiciary. and he has strong influence on the guardian council. it screens candidates before they can run for the presidency. >>> koichiro tanaka has followed iran for many years. he's the director of the institute of energy economics japan. he gave us some insight on the upcoming election. >> first of all, we have to look how this campaign would go on. most of the candidates, i believe, would say, talk about mr. ahmadinejad's presidency and also they would talk about his performance in the past years. now, both former presidents would be, i believe, criticized of their performance and the way they conducted their state affairs. the major candidate that we could see today is mr. rowhani who used to be the chief nuclear negotiator during the presidency of mr. hatami. he may have a chance, but the problem is that he's perceived to be so clos

hot mimi -- what about ahmadinejad we do not like.do you want someone for presidency means -- america. they need not obey consulate. it is the kind of shame. ahmadinejad did it this time because even as candidates, the only person who talks about this is the relation between israel and iran extremely supported by ahmadinejad. and i think what we talk the u.s., it's not about good something to rant. it's about the common interests. it's basically a gift from ukrainian regime to pursue the common neutral interests. the kind of government managed by the world. even if they do not suffer their values. it is the time to put all power, iranian demand to side with the many organized national unity against a random distinction and the government extreme pressure to give the election, not to be silent. this is not just supporting a specific candidate. and in general, if you do not want to talk about the election publicly, if you do not want to put the issues like if you want to kill people -- [inaudible] were killed, and fascinated by the in e

talking about ahmadinejad first. ahmadinejad has been blown way out of proportion in the west.and by our media. and you kind of can't blame our media. our media likes to look for stuff that is interesting, exciting, um, sensationalist. and ahmadinejad, you know, he fits that bill. if he was reasonable, he wouldn't get a lot of air time. he's much more interesting as an unreasonable person. and as a whacko. we like whackos. look what's happening with north korea. half the media is concerned about him being a little whacko instead of him actually being a threat n. ahmadinejad's case, it was both. this obsession we have with him being a threat as well as being whacko. but ahmadinejad in iran is not as important as we made him out to be here. it was much more convenient for the media to make him out to be the leader of iran. in fact, that's the word they've used often, the leader of iran. when he is, in fact, not the leader of iran. iran has a very, very complicated political structure, and it might bore people to death for me to go into it, but i'll just go it into very, very brie
