Flávio positions himself as ready to rescue democracy and lead Brazil toward prosperity, framing his candidacy as an essential response to systemic interference and the need to restore genuine governance for the people's benefit.

Brazil's Consequential Election 00:01:16

This is one of the most, potentially one of the most consequential elections in history of Brazil, which really shows something, because there have been some pretty controversial elections in the past.

So, what do you make of this?

O Brasil não passes por um momento simples.

Nós não temos uma democracia plena no nosso país.

Há muita perseguição política, em especial, aqueles que estão no espectro político da direita, personified no presidente Jair Bolsonaro, who was a major vítima of this low-fair.

Alguien who was condened not for corruption, not for lavagem of money, not for some crime violent.

He was condened for defending the truth and resolving to not curse a a system that persecuted, interfered in the government, and the president of Bolsonaro simply wanted to have peace to govern and do better for the people.

In fun of him being impulsive to become president of the Republic, he indicated my name to be elected to the president of the Republic.

I am a senator of the Republic today, I am 23 years in politics, I have 44 years of age.

I am a president of the country, but with a lot of experience and ready to rescat the democracy in my country and to take the country on the road to prosperity.
