Dilma Rousseff, Brazil's presidential candidate for the ruling Workers' Party, gestures as she leaves a voting booth in Porto Alegre October 31, 2010.

This gesture was made famous by Nixon as he boarded the military helicopter for the last time on the White House Lawn after resigning as President.  It is probably one of the most 'popular' picture of Nixon and has come to symbolize the whole Watergate scandal.
