In search of Obama in Brazil
Aug. 8 - A group of politically engaged Afro-Brazilians want to find an Obama of their own.
With two thousand stickers, uncountable pamphlets, posters and an email address, the group of Brazilian Obama supporters have managed to raise $1,800 for Obama's campaign.
Deborah Lutterbeck reports.
SOUNDBITE: Ivan Rodrigues, saying (Portuguese):
"What is this Brazil I live in? A Brazil that recognizes the rich in a way and the poor in another, the blacks in a way, the Indians in another, a Brazil that judges bankers in a way, and that judges the citizens who work every day in another way. So I believe the Brazilian Obama will understand people's needs and listen to this cry which lies inside each one of us."
