Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
Nakamura, but they are not allowing him to play.
This is why Kasparov should be FIDE President. Otherwise Nakamura will never have this chance. Kasparov will arrange everything if he’s elected.

Dear Chess Friends,
Please feel free to choose your 1-2-3 rank choice preferences as well — at http://goo.gl/6Rl6YY
Will be interesting to see your preferences.
I personally think Kramnik has the best chance against Carlsen.
Cheers!
Kasparov will make himself play and make rules so he will be the winner even if he loses all games.
