Answer:

C) by creating an elite socialist ruling the party to lead a revolution

Step-by-step explanation:

Vladímir Ilich Ulyanov was a politician, philosopher, revolutionary, political theorist and Russian communist. Leader of the Bolshevik sector of the Social Democratic Labor Party of Russia, he became the main leader of the October Revolution of 1917. In 1917 he was appointed president of the Council of People's Commissaries (Sovnarkom), becoming the first and maximum leader of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) in 1922. Politically Marxist, his contributions to Marxist thought are called Leninism.
