But he was too famous and so he cannot be just... removed definitely, so he was putted out of any power. I think, that if he suceeded, there might have been another Stalin here, this time with nuclear weapons, though. And how he treated with those weapons, he showed on some military exercises in fifties...
I am glad he did not to reach the power, because I like Fallout only as a computer game, not in real world.
