Brazil's Lula da Silva is the world's most popular politician, according to Newsweek.
Enjoying a 70 percent approval rating, Lula is quite bashful about his success. Since he won't brag, I'll do it for him. Lula rocks. Brazil is the only country not sinking because of the global recession, and is actually experiencing growth. He's been able to up the minimum wage, and extend education, health care, and other social benefits without sinking the economy because he has done so pragmatically and logically rather than to please the people or advance his career. Last point, land redistribution for indigenous peoples and affirmative action round out Lula's awesomeness.
