Nunca antes na história deste país...


Como todos sabemos, por 500 anos o Brasil foi tratado como um país sem futuro pelos países ricos, nunca tendo sido governado por um homem do povo ou um civil nordestino.

Na revista Time de 6 de dezembro de 1954:

Na chamada da capa: The New President of the World's Biggest Republic

The Brazilian dream is made of more than dream stuff. Brazil is indeed a giant.

... In area (3,287,842 sq. mi.) it is the world's biggest republic, big as the U.S. with a second Texas thrown in.

... a new breed of Brazilian businessmen is changing the face of the land with a zeal unmatched in all of Latin America.

... in Brazil there was one big difference: the first stirring of new hope in a new leader, a man who symbolizes a break with a troubled past and a promise of a brighter today—President Joao Café Filho.

... Joao Fernandes de Campos Cafe Filho was the son of a low-rung civil servant in the state of Rio Grande de Norte's finance department. In those days an imaginary social-economic boundary divided the state capital of Natal (turn-of-the-century pop. 16,000) into two distinct dietary sections. On the lower ground, near the sea, lived the canguleiros, the poorer people who ate a cheap fish called the cangulo; on the higher ground lived the more prosperous xarias', who could afford to eat a more succulent fish called the xareu. The part-Indian Cafes were canguleiros.

...At 13, Joao finished up at the Porter school, went on to Natal's public high school. Recalls one of his old teachers: "He was a restless, unruly, rebellious boy with a strong dislike for study. I never dreamed he would amount to anything." Restless Joao never finished high school.

...Since war's end, Brazil's gross national product has increased at a rate of 6% a year, keeping well ahead of population growth (2.3% a year).
