Right-Wing Comics, Young Libertarian Keep Protests Going In Brazil

Anti-government protests in Brazil are entering their second month. Some of the new faces of the latest protest movement include a 19-year-old Libertarian who wants to take the president down.

RENEE MONTAGNE, HOST:

We turn next to Brazil, a country embroiled in political unrest. Tens of thousands of people protested across the country yesterday, as they have for weeks. They're frustrated by an economy that's getting worse and a massive corruption scandal at the state-owned oil company. The protests are a problem for President Dilma Rousseff. A new opinion poll puts her approval rating at just 13 percent. NPR's Lourdes Garcia-Navarro was in Sao Paulo yesterday where she met some of the new faces of Brazil's latest protest movement.

LOURDES GARCIA-NAVARRO, BYLINE: There were buses blasting rock music stationed every few blocks.

GARCIA-NAVARRO: And even a parade of low-riders tearing down Sao Paulo's main drag to chants of out with Dilma from the crowd. The protests in Sao Paulo Sunday seemed well-organized and well-funded and different from the ones that shook Brazil just before the World Cup. Instead of people coming out over a hike in bus fares, as they did then, one of the main protest leaders this time has been giving lectures about how the whole public transport system should be privatized. Meet the 19-year-old self-described libertarian who wants to take Dilma Rousseff down.

KIM KATAGUIRI: I am Kim Kataguiri, coordinator of the Free Brazil Movement.

GARCIA-NAVARRO: During the last round of protests, he was in high school.

KATAGUIRI: Our youth here in Brazil is most leftist. It's cool to be a leftist, but we are here to show that you don't need to be an old man that likes that dictatorships to be - if you defend free market. You can be cool also defending free market. That's our idea. That's the idea for the movement.

Rand Paul on why a "libertarian-ish" Republican can win

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Kentucky, says he's one of the most conservative members of the Senate on issues like spending, taxes and demanding balanced budgets. But there's no denying that he has a whole other set of what he calls "libertarian-ish" issues that define his political ideology.

In an interview on CBS' "Face the Nation" Sunday, Paul said those issues include a belief in privacy and a reform in the criminal justice system to make sure everyone is treated fairly under the law.

"We still have a large problem in our country that, if you are black, you're not always being treated fairly under the law. And I want to fix that," he said.

Paul - who announced last week that he is running for president in 2016 - has been a vocal proponent of trying to make the party more inclusive. He says he's not finding resistance among other members of his party as he tries to do that.

In a separate interview, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said the GOP is working on expanding the map of states where they can win.

"There's no doubt that we have to be about perfect. And the other side can be about good. And so the fact is that we do have the higher burden," he said. "When I talk to people every day, even people who are trying to defeat me in the nomination process, come up and say, 'Oh, yeah, but we do like that you're trying to make the party bigger.' So I'm not finding much objection from Republicans," he said. "It means not just showing up once every four years, five months before the election. It means talking for two and three years, in these communities, about things that we have in common before you go in and sell the final product."

Paul noted that he has traveled to Ferguson, Missouri, Detroit, Chicago and Milwaukee as part of these efforts.

"I've tried to say to the African-American population: One, I'm going to fix the criminal justice system. Two, I believe in your privacy. And three, I believe in economic opportunity," Paul said.
