The Shoeshine President - Brazil

Feb 2003
It's a fairy-tale story. Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, a former shoe-shine boy with no formal education, rises to become president of Brazil. We relive the excitement on the streets of Sao Paulo as the people's president is voted in.

[DaniboyBR2]

The best president? Enough knowledge?

Well, when someone writes such things you can't argue, just agree with the fact that this person is stupid as shit.

His education doesn't matter

I didn't finnished the high school but I was graduated anyway, because I was too advanced for my age...

I never did any english course but as you all can see I already have enough knowledge.

Fuck...so what the president never finnished school, I can see he has been the best president of recent times, if not of all time, over here, so I don't think his education mattered at all :]

Hahaha LMAO. He is not a person. No way, he doesn't care about any brazilians, only his money, I mean, OUR money. Please, he didn't finish the school, I have more culture than my president. I'm so sorry about him.
