The article profiles Brazilian President Luiz Inácio "Lula" da Silva. Da Silva won the presidency in October 2002 with an unprecedented 61% of the popular vote, after nearly copping an outright majority in the first round. It was his fourth attempt as the standard-bearer of the Brazilian Workers' Party, an amalgam of liberation Catholics, trade unionists and assorted leftist intellectuals that emerged from the long struggle against the country's vicious military dictatorship from 1964 to 1985.
