Luiz Incio Lula da Silva, the charismatic leader, servant of the people

Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva was a real democratic president who genuinely effected policies that lifted over 30 million Brazilians out of poverty. And what was his reward? The plutocracy jailed him. There is much to learn as this is America's future if we don't understand the dynamics occurring in Brazil, a coup by the elite.
