Credit: Reuters/Ueslei Marcelino By Brian Winter SAO PAULO | Wed Aug 17, 2011 10:46am EDT SAO PAULO (Reuters) - Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff has not yet decided whether she or her enormously popular predecessor, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, will be their party's candidate in the next election in 2014, a top minister said in an interview published on Wednesday. Communications Minister Paulo Bernardo said Rousseff, who took office on January 1, was the likely candidate "if she has the desire to run." But he said she would first need to discuss the matter with Lula. "I don't see that question being resolved without a conversation between the two of them. It's very early still," Bernardo said in an interview published on the website of newspaper Folha de S.Paulo. The comments by Bernardo, who is very close to both leaders, come as the president struggles to deal with a political crisis in Congress and an economy that is showing clear signs of a slowdown after the boom of recent years. The 65-year-old Lula, who governed from 2003 to 2010, was forbidden by law from running for a third consecutive term. He plucked Rousseff from relative obscurity to be his successor, raising expectations among some Brazilians from the very beginning that she might step aside for him to run again. A government official told Reuters last week that Rousseff has often floated the idea of not running again in private conversations, although the assumption in the presidential palace remains that she will. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue. Lula enjoys a near-mythical reputation among many Brazilians who credit the former labor leader with lifting millions from poverty during his two-term presidency. He left office with approval ratings of about 80 percent. Rousseff, 63, remains popular but has struggled to emulate Lula's charisma or connection with Brazil's working classes. Lula has kept a high public profile since leaving the presidency and earlier this year returned to the political stage in Brasilia to soothe concerns of disgruntled members of the ruling coalition. He remains a valued source of political advice and support for Rousseff, but raising the possibility of his return risks making her look like somewhat of a lame duck barely seven months into her four-year term. Lula has sent mixed signals about his future intentions. Though he has recently stated emphatically that Rousseff will be his party's candidate in 2014, he said before leaving office in December that he could not rule out being president again. "I can't say no," Lula said in a TV interview on December 20. "We're going to work for (Rousseff) to have a good government, and when the moment arrives, we'll see what happens.
