Problem Statement

Color every vertex of 20082008-gon with two colors, such that adjacent vertices have different color. If sum of angles of vertices of first color is same as sum of angles of vertices of second color, than we call 20082008-gon as interesting. Convex 20092009-gon one vertex is marked. It is known, that if remove any unmarked vertex, then we get interesting 20082008-gon. Prove, that if we remove marked vertex, then we get interesting 20082008-gon too.
