It's not often something from from my second homeland of Brazil pops up in my reader, but I found this pretty amusing. Remember when people joked about Jesse Ventura and Arnold Schwarzenegger's candidacies? (As well as Reagan a generation earlier...)
Amusingly, the newest Deputado in the Brazilian congress is an actual clown. Some campaign ads:
Some of the video's best lines:
"If you guys don't vote for me, I'm going to die."
"What does a Deputado do? In reality, I have no idea. Vote for me and I'll get back to you on that one."
"I will really be doing... um...the life of our Brazil... um...our lives...our moment... our thing..."
Plenty lost in translation, but still amusing.
