Soares [2]

Yesterday evening Soares indeed announced his running for President. He told in his speech, very short btw, to short for me, only 35 minutes, that is not a speech, that is a word you say to attend people for something. A speech takes at least 2 hours, everywhere politicians are the same, they can't talk, always that short notes, that one-liners. But after all, we have a youngster running for President. Soares told a bunch of young people shouted 'Soares is staying' and that was part of his decision to go for President. And that he moved, like Portugal, but Portugal doesn't move, so Soares doesn't move also. But I think that his earing device wasn't working good and that the group was shouting something else. For an old men, and even for me, it is simple to misunderstand 'Soares é fixe' for 'Soares é lixo'.
José Sócrates (PM): "On this moment the candidate that serves best for Portugal and his citizens is Soares". Remember he is only 80 years old.
Note: Soares did probably a lot for Portugal, especially in the era after the dictatur. But there is a time for everyone.
