【新唐人2012年8月18日讯】前中共最高领导人毛泽东、邓小平和江泽民，似乎都喜欢在某个“关键时期”游泳。而现任的中共最高领导人胡锦涛，却极少公开游泳，即便是在被中共高层视为旅游避暑胜地的北戴河海滨，也不见胡锦涛游泳的身影。这一现象到底暗藏玄机，还是因为胡锦涛对毛邓江的不认同？一起来看看评论分析。
美国《外交政策》网站8月14号发表了副主编费甚(Isaac Stone Fish)的文章，历数中共领导人的“游泳爱好”。
文章说，毛泽东喜欢游泳。除了北戴河，1966年毛还曾经游长江，据说那是一次极富像征意味的出游。而1989年的夏天，邓小平也是在北戴河度过，据说他“每天要游一小时”，即使当时发生了中共残暴镇压学生的“六四事件”。而下令屠城的正是邓小平。
海外杂志《中国事务》总编辑伍凡分析，毛邓等的公开游泳，实际是一种政治语言。
海外杂志《中国事务》主编伍凡：“他（毛）要逆水而行。他用这个政治行为表达不跟他走的，就要把他甩掉，让他淹死，（表示）只有他能够带领大家前进。在‘人民公社’刚刚成立，三面红旗起来的时候，陪他（毛）游泳，这是一次。文化大革命的前不久，他又要游泳，要号召大家来游泳，那就是要大家跟着他走。”
费甚在文中指出，江泽民也曾有过用游泳证明自己的时候。1997年，外界纷纷传言他看起来“不太健康”。因此，江在访问美国时，在夏威夷海滩当众下水游泳。
不过，江泽民挺着大肚子浮在水面上的照片，被公布出来后，却引起了不少网友的嬉笑怒骂，有网友说，简直就是“一具浮尸”，也有网友直呼“ 恶心”！
伍凡：“江泽民那张照片是完全失败啦。这个癞蛤蟆浮在水上。你也没有动，周围几个保镖看着你，没有逆浪前进，没有游泳，所以他这个完全失败的东西。也不知道是谁给他出的洋相，拿这张东西出来。”
时事评论员蓝述说，江泽民生性喜欢演戏，即使下了台，还经常“出镜”。
时事评论员蓝述：“江泽民这个人能力比较差一点，人家说他只有科长的水平。但是他比较喜欢演戏，喜欢出风头，以自我为中心。他比较喜欢溜须拍马。他在台上当然不用说了，他使劲去演出。”
但是，蓝述指出，今年“薄王事件”发生以来，江系控制的媒体不断放风，甚至有几次把江泽民抬出来造势，但有关江本人的镜头，饱受外界质疑。
至于现任的中共主席胡锦涛，甚至他任内的中共高层，都极少有人穿着泳装高调亮相。
蓝述分析，中共的第三代领导人，基本上都是属于拥有专业背景的技术官僚。再加上胡锦涛的团派背景，也决定了他处事低调的风格。
蓝述：“技术官僚他们上去的过程，在仕途上就是因为他们比较听话。团派他也是作为党的助手，所以他也是处在辅助的地位，听话的地位。所以你看团派的这些技术官僚，和胡锦涛类似的，比如说李克强等等，基本上在公众场合是没有什么棱角的，低调，做事小心谨慎。”
而在费甚看来，胡锦涛的健康完全良好，也比以往的领导人更年轻，他这种低调做法，似乎暗藏玄机。费甚认为，很可能是出于胡锦涛对前任领袖的不认同。
此外，文章特别提到，在游泳方面，已经落马的前重庆市委书记薄熙来也很爱“出镜”。
而薄熙来正是江泽民、周永康力挺的代表人物之一。

Former Top CCP Leaders love to “show off" But Hu
Former top leaders of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP),
Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping and Jiang Zemin, all seemed to like swimming during a “critical period".
Today, the highest leader Hu Jintao is rarely seen swimming,
even at Beidaihe, the summer tourist seaside resort.
Why is Hu Jintao so different from Mao-Deng-Jiang?
Are there hidden clues? Let’s look at the commentators’ analysis.
An article by associate editor of U.S. based Foreign Policy
magazine, Isaac Stone Fish, on the Foreign Policy website
on August 14, discusses CCP leaders favorite hobby
of swimming.
The article said that Mao Zedong like swimming at Beidaihe.
In addition, Mao also swam in the Yangtze River in 1966,
which was a highly symbolic trip.
In the summer of 1989, Deng Xiaoping when staying
at Beidaihe, swam one hour a day,
even during the June 4th Incident,
a brutal suppression of students.
And it was Deng who ordered the massacre.
Wu Fan, overseas magazine editor-in-chief of China Affairs,
stated that Mao-Deng’s open swimming is actually a political language.
Wu Fan: “Mao swam against the current and used it to express
that those who do not follow him would drown in water.
He would get rid of them.
He is the only one who was able to lead us forward.
He asked others to swim with him right after ‘people’s
communes’ had been established.
Shortly before the Cultural Revolution,
he wanted to swim again and asked people to join him.
That meant he wanted everyone to follow him.”
Issac Fish points out that Jiang Zemin swam to prove himself.
In 1997, rumor spread in the outside world that he looked “unhealthy."
Therefore, during Jiang’s visit to the United States,
he swam on the public beach in Hawaii.
However, photos of Jiang’s bulging belly floating
on the water caused a lot of ridicule from netizens.
They said, “It’s simply a floating corpse.”
Some said, “disgusting!”
Wu Fan: “The photo of Jiang Zemin failed miserably.
Some said it was a toad floating in the water,
that he did not move, that he was surrounded by several
bodyguards watching, he did not swim against the tide,
and that he did not swim at all.
No one knows who dreamed this up and it is embarrassing.”
Political commentator Lan Shu commented that
Jiang Zemin loves to show off.
Even after he retired, he was still showing off on camera.
Lan Shu: “Jiang Zemin is not very capable and
had only the ability of a section chief.
However, he likes to show off, and is also self-centered.
He likes to be a sycophant. Give him a stage, he’ll perform.”
However, Lan Shu stated that since the “Wang/Bo Incident,”
Media controlled by Jiang’s faction continue to spread rumors,
and even brought out photos of Jiang meeting with someone.
Outsiders are skeptical of the authenticity of his photos.
As for the incumbent President Hu Jintao or other CCP leaders,
rarely would one of them wear a swim suit to make a high profile debut.
Lan Shu analyzed that the third generation of CCP leaders are
basically technocrats with a professional background.
Hu’s background also predetermines his low-key style.
Lan Shu: “Those technocrats had demonstrated being
more obedient during the course of their career.
Factions or leagues are also the Party’s helpers with
the status of the auxiliary, obedient position.
Thus, look at Hu Jintao or Li Keqiang and others,
they are very low-key in public and do things carefully.”
Issac Fish believes that Hu Jintao’s health is very good.
Younger than the previous leaders, his low-key approach
seem to carry hidden mystery.
Fish thinks it may result from disagreeing
with the former leader.
In addition, the article specifically mentioned that Bo Xilai,
the former Chongqing Party Secretary, also loves to “show off."
Bo is a representative of Jiang Zemin and Zhou Yongkang.
