President Dilma Rousseff is the cover woman of NEWSWEEK's issue on women...with a lengthy profile by Margolis.
Among the tidbits gleaned from the interview/profile: the President's mother is also named Dilma; the President didn't shoot guns when she was a Marxist rebel in the 70's...but she's expert at cleaning them; she has a quick temper and is not above humiliating underlings...and she is a workaholic.
ALSO: BLOOMBERG's A.Ragir gives a long sum-up of Dilma's policies and problems... inflation, rich pensions and heavy government spending.
