"Let's begin then by recalling Ronaldo Caiado's political trajectory."

"Ronaldo Caiado is 76 years old, was born in Anápolis, Goiás, and is a physician and agricultural producer."

"He entered politics in the 1980s, as one of the founders of the União Democrática Ruralista, the UDR."

"He ran for the presidency for the first time in 1989 and finished in tenth place."

"Two years later, he took office for his first term as a federal deputy for Goiás."

"He served as a deputy five times, and later as a senator."

"And then he governed Goiás for seven years and three months."

"Now he is once again running for the presidency of the Republic."

"Ronaldo Caiado is the PSD candidate and has as his running mate the party president, Gilberto Kassab."

"Candidate, good evening."

"Thank you very much for your presence, sir."

"Good evening, candidate."

"Candidate, the interview time starts now."

"Good evening, Renata Vasconcelos."

"Good evening, César Trado."

"I want to thank here the entire management of TV Globo; this is an important moment in such a short election and of unparalleled relevance for the future of this country, where we will be able to speak to millions and millions of Brazilians, and many of them do not know me — this will be the first opportunity to really know what we think and what we have to propose at such an important moment in the nation's political history."

"Candidate."

"Well, first, I do have that responsibility, yes."

"I have a background; I am a democrat at heart."

"I am a man who has never deviated from the rules of democracy."

"I'm a man who has won elections, lost elections, never contested results; I was a parliamentarian who always respected the panel's result."

"So, I'm someone who can also tell you that the Brazilian trait, César Tralho, is not to build hatred; he is not one to build this process of eternal revenge."
