"The Future in Dollars"Tribuna Da Impressa (The Press Tribune) Rio de Janeiro, March 4, 1989 |
When Alex Murrray went ot Brazil in 1989, the press interviewed him in March about the coming election for the first democratically elected president in the country’s modern history.
Up until now the polls show that most Brazilians don’t know who they’ll vote for President. Few are those who’d risk the name of the best candidate. It is exactly in this minority that we find a ‘mediumistic’ hint: “If the elections were held tomorrow, the governor of the state of Alagoas, Fernando Collar de Mello would be elected.” The prediction comes from the American Medium Alexander Murray, who’s in Rio until March 25th and starts today to give a series of workshops in Botafogo. Fernando Collar de Mello was elected in a run-off election in December of 1989 as the President of Brazil. After which time his mother Leda Collor de Mello became a regular client of Alex’s whenever he was in Brazil. Unfortunately, the warnings given to Dona Leyda to convey to her son went unheeded and Collar de Mello was impeached and turned out of office after a brief, but glamorous, presidency. |
