It's election time in Brazil right now, and everyone is trying to look good. This might just be our current president and candidate to reelection Dilma Rousseff trying to win over the evironmental cause votes, which is a huge electorate and a huge chunk of Marina Silva's electorate, who holds second place in the current vote intention polls.



Yeah, Marina Silva is well-known on international community as a great defender of the Amazon and North region of Brazil.

Also, these guys have a huge amount of money, so they can pay for their freedom. Just picking the right layer and the right judge to give the 'habeas corpus'.

Oh, sorry, I can't say that here. It's - what some folks say here - 'low self esteem'.


You are 100% right.

Election time everyone loves the law


In the last poll Marina would beat Dilma. Her popularity got a huge boost after Eduardo Campos died in the plane crash earlier this month.
