We are again approching a time of descion regarding the presidential election. Our President, Lula, can't run for reelection again, he is now finishing his second period in charge, so according to brazilian laws, he can do a third mandate.
But, he has a candidate: Dilma Rousseff, one of todays Minister of Lula's goverment.
She is actually a new face for most of the brazilians, but her background goes beyond a regular politician.
In the 60's and 70's she was member of obscure groups. She was taken to jail, beaten... Why? She was fighting for what she belives. That's great you may think! But Let's go a little further to find out what are those beliefs we are talking...
She was the mind behind one of the most famous roberies in brazilian history when the former governate Adhemar de Barros had his house safe robed by Dilma's group. 2,5 million dollars were taken on that afternoon. She was also part of the group that stoled a truck full of weapons from the army back in the day. Every time considered, by her fellow partners, the mind behind the crimes.
Now she wants to be a president.
But I keep asking myself... why???
Maybe she is different now...
or maybe she consider the brazilian people stupid.
Let's hope for the best.
