選取自1673年出版的《the Election to the Kingdom of the Great Russian Tsar of the Great Sovereign and Grand Prince Prince Mikhail Feodorovich of All Great Russian Autocracy.》剪影, 顯示了谢尔盖圣三一修道院的Kelar亞伯拉罕·帕利欽 (Abraham Palitsin) ,宣言全俄縉紳會議關於選舉米哈伊尔·费多罗维奇·罗曼诺夫入主王國的決議。
"Then there was nobody dearer to the Russian people than the Romanov family. It has long been in popular love. There was a good memory of the first wife of Ivan Vasilievich, Anastasia, whom the people revered almost holy for her virtues. They remembered and did not forget her good brother Nikita Romanovich and condoled with his children, whom Boris Godunov had tormented and harassed. They respected Metropolitan Filaret, the former boyar Fyodor Nikitich, who was captured in Poland and seemed to be a true Russian martyr for a just cause".
"...But the Lithuanian and Swedish king and their children, for their many untruths, and some other people that are to be chosen for the Moscow state, and Marinka and her son – we do not want to".
——Sergey Platonov
但即使經過如此決議之後,羅曼諾夫家仍面臨著許多強大的候選人。當然,他們都有一個或另一個短處(見上文)。不過,羅曼諾夫家也是有著個重要的缺陷——與古老的俄羅斯氏族相比,他們的出身顯然不夠閃耀。根據羅曼諾夫家和謝列梅捷夫家以及許多其他莫斯科氏族的說法,羅曼諾夫第一個可信是歷史祖先的,傳統上被認為是莫斯科波雅爾安德烈·科比拉( Andrei Kobyla ),其是來自於普魯士王室。
"Let's choose Misha Romanov! – Boyar Fedor Sheremetyev campaigned without hiding his plans. "He is young and will be accustomed to us!" ...The desire to have an "inexperienced" monarch is the goal pursued by the experienced and cunning Moscow politicians, supporters of Mikhail (Alexander Degtyarev).
"The Cossacks were in favor of Mikhail, since his father, who was friends with the Tushintsy, was not an enemy of the Cossacks. The boyars remembered that the father of the applicant from a noble family and also the cousin of Fyodor Ioannovich, the last king from the clan of Ivan Kalita. The hierarchs of the church spoke in support of Romanov, since his father was a monk, with the rank of metropolitan, and for the nobles the Romanovs were good as opponents of the oprichnina."
1613年2月20日,在莫斯科克里姆林宮的天使大教堂的門廊上,謝爾蓋聖三一修道院的凱拉爾(Kelar),亞伯拉罕·帕利滕斯(Abraham Palitsyn),宣讀出全俄縉紳會議決議“波雅爾米哈伊爾·費奧多羅維奇·羅曼諾夫當選接掌皇家王位”。 ("The Book of the Election of the Tsar and Grand Duke Mikhail Fedorovich",1672-1673 年)
“波雅爾們在縉紳會議裡抽出時間,試圖從哥薩克人那兒秘密地解決有關國王人選的問題,並等待他們離開莫斯科。但他們不單止沒離開,還要是表現得更積極起來。有一次,在“與所有哥薩克軍隊”協商後,他們派遣多達500人去造訪克魯蒂齊大主教(Krutitsy Metropolitan):他們是強行沖破了大門,沖進他的院子,用粗魯的語言要求:“給我們,大主教,俄羅斯的沙皇,那個我們崇拜和服侍的人,並要求獲取他們的報酬,(如此就)死而無憾!” (Romanovs, Historical Porters, edited by Elena Leonova)
