Since our fearless leader has debarked for Brazil, I thought I’d rehash an old article from Der Spiegel.
It was Condoleezza Rice, national security advisor, who helped her boss out of the embarassing situation. During a conversation between the two presidents, George W. Bush, 55, (USA) and Fernando Henrique Cardoso, 71, (Brazil), Bush bewildered his colleague with the question “Do you have blacks, too?”
Rice, 47, noticing how astonished the Brazilian was, saved the day by telling Bush “Mr. President, Brazil probably has more blacks than the USA. Some say it’s the Country with the most blacks outside Africa.” Later, the Brazilian president Cardoso said: regarding Latin America, Bush was still in his “learning phase”.
According to the CIA Factbook, 38.5% of Brazilians are mulatto (mixed white and black) and another 6.2% are black. That comes close to half the population. According the Wikipedia, Brazil received 37% of the total slaves taken out of Africa (3,000,000). Of course, our President didn’t know any of that. That’s because he is an idiot.
