claudio enrique barack obama

i hear that if barack obama loses the u.s. presidential election he'd be a strong contender for national office in many other nations. though i understand that the world is monitoring this election closely, i still raised an eyebrow at arturo's contention that six brazilian candidates had changed their names to some variant of barack obama. then he hit me with the video above. curiously, the al jazeera report doesn't even mention all the candidates who are john mccain-izing their names.
