[edit] Peçanha

There are NO sources to say Peçanha had any African ancestry. At that time, perhaps, his opponents said that Peçanha was a mulato only to denigrate him (a racist vision, of course).

But, as it's only an assumption and this is an encyclopedia, we should not put Peçanha in article Afro-Brazilian.

For Machado de Assis, anyone smarter knows that Machado de Assis was a son of a Mulatto father with a Portuguese mother. Just read his biography.

By the way, many other Brazilian presidents had some African ancestry, not only Peçanha, but even Fernando Henrique Cardoso, who already said to media he had a mulato great-grandmother, even though he looks as Caucasian as any Portuguese.

You cannot base ancestry in "apparence"; not in Brazil.

Lula probably has some. Maybe only presidents like Ernesto Geisel or Costa e Silva did not, because they were the sons of immigrants.

Most Brazilians whose family are in Brazil for over 4 generations have African ancestry, despite their physical apparence. (talk) 18:39, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Stop bothering me

Please, STOP BOTHERING ME.

If someone wrote Peçanha was a mulatto in the Portuguese encyclopedia, who cares?

There are NO real sources to proof he was a mulato. They are all unsourced informations.

Please, stop asking me who said Machado de Assis was a mulatto. Any stupid person who studied about him at school knows he felt prejudice for being mulatto.

Any idiot who knows about him knows his father was descended from free slaves and his mother was a Portuguese washerwoman from the Azores.

Just google about Machado de Assis and read his biography.
