Curiosidades No Youtube podem ouvir, no vídeo Durão Barroso e o ensino burguês, umas palavras antiburguesas do maoísta Durão Barroso: Julgo que a proposta aprovada hoje neste plenário de estudantes candidatos ao primeiro ano e apresentada pela sua intercomissões de luta, órgão que todos souberam erguer para poder fazer avançar a luta é uma proposta inteiramente justa e que conduz no sentido correcto da luta. Que é no sentido de ingresso imediato da sua aplicação desde já e de exigir das autoridades governamentais a legalização; pois nós temos que ver que esta questão da luta contra o serviço cívico, que já foi vista o ano passado e temos que seja quem for que está no ministério da educação e da investigação cientifica, chamemos-lhe assim, defende essa medida, medida essa que não é mais que o reflexo da crise do sistema de ensino burguês, e medida essa que é inteiramente incorrecta, antioperária e antipopular que lança estudantes contra trabalhadores e trabalhadores contra estudantes. Durante a campanha eleitoral de 2002, a esposa de Durão Barroso, Margarida Sousa Uva, dedicou publicamente ao marido um excerto do poema "sigamos o cherne" de Alexandre O\'Neill, pretendendo destacar as capacidades de liderança do marido:
Este momento teve amplo eco na comunicação social, sendo a alcunha de "Cherne" posteriormente utilizada com fins humorísticos, especialmente por parte da oposição.

President of the European CommissionIn 2004, the proposed European Constitution and now the Treaty of Lisbon included a provision that the choice of President must take into account the result of Parliamentary elections and the candidate supported by the victorious Europarty in particular. That provision was not in force in the nomination in 2004, but the centre-right European People's Party (EPP), who won the elections, pressured for a candidate from its own ranks. In the end, José Manuel Barroso, the EPP candidate, was chosen by the European Council. On the same basis, the EPP again endorsed Barroso for a second term during the 2009 European election campaign and, after the EPP again won the elections, was able to secure his nomination by the European Council on 17 June 2009. On 3 September 2009, Barroso unveiled his manifesto for his second term. Did you know that Jose Manuel Barroso is popular at 16% of voters?? On 16 September 2009, Barroso was re-elected by the European Parliament for another five years. One of his first tasks since being re-elected was a visit to Ireland to persuade Irish citizens to approve the Treaty of Lisbon in the country's second referendum due to be held the following month.Barroso was greeted by Irish Minister for Defence Willie O'Dea and Peter Power, the Minister of State (with special responsibility for Overseas Development), as he got off his plane at Shannon Airport on the morning of 19 September 2009 before briefly meeting with the joint committee of the Oireachtas and meeting and greeting people at functions in Limerick's City Hall, University of Limerick (UL) and the Savoy Hotel. He told The Irish Times in an interview referenced internationally by Reuters that he had been asked if Ireland would split from the European Union. He also launched a €14.8 million grant for former workers at Dell's Limerick plant, described as "conveniently opportune" by former Member of the European Parliament and anti-Lisbonite Patricia McKenna.
