Interests Just to be clear right from the start: This blog is NOT written by José Manuel Durão Barroso himself. It is also NOT authorised by him or his team. The authors of this blog are a group of Barroso supporters who think that he lacks presence in social media and we would like to change this. We have decided to write this blog and a related Twitter account {@barrosdia} as a first-person narrative to humanise the President of the European Commission and to bring a new tone to his leadership. All posts and tweets are based on facts, real activities of Durão Barroso as reported in videos, press releases, newspaper articles or official documents. Beyond these facts, we will add a human touch that may NOT always reflect the real moods or choice of words of Durão Barroso although we will try to always keep it realistic. We invite you to comment as if Barroso would write this blog himself having this in mind. We also invite you to make us aware of events, photos, videos or background stories that can help to make this blog more convincing. Send us photos or video/audio recordings you have made of the Commission President during public events so we can illustrate our blog posts.
