Other than the Tsar being grateful to Rasputin for helping the Tsarevitch Alexei when he suffered from bouts of hemophilia, he simply found it comforting to talk to the peasant. However, with regard to political suggestions, Rasputin had no effect at all. The Tsar completely ignored all of his advice, such as: not getting involved in World War I, giving the Jews equal rights, and giving the peasants land to farm. Ironically, after the revolution, Lenin did all of these things. If the Tsar had listened to Rasputin, the revolution might have been avoided. One must remember that the Tsar, as well as most of the Romanov dynasty, had been mercilessly slaughtering whole villages of Jews and peasants for centuries, while Rasputin never harmed a soul and forgave anyone who attempted to assassinate him. The Tsarist regime was a very oppressive one, except for the aristocrats, and Rasputin had warned Nicholas II that if he didn't accord rights to all of his people, they would turn against him. And they did. When Rasputin died, only the aristocrats rejoiced. The general population, whom he had helped, were devastated.
See "Rasputin" by R.J. Minney and "Raspoutine" (in French) by General Alexandre Spiridovitch (the chief of the Tsar's secret service, who in the 1920's wrote about Rasputin's many logical suggestions for bettering and preserving the country, and how he was unjustly vilified by the aristocracy)
