He lost his parents at the age of nine and had to work to support his brothers. In 1958 he left Acre to begin studies in [[Rio de Janeiro]], getting graduated in physics and mathematics. In 1959 he became an auxiliary [[anesthesiology|anesthesiologist]]. In 1965 he received a medical degree from the Rio de Janeiro College of Medicine, with a specialty in [[cardiology]]. His academic pursuits, however, were not confined to medicine, and he has written articles on diverse subjects, including [[philosophy]], [[logic]] and [[robotics]]{{Citation needed|date=March 2018}}. In 1980 he received a medical degree from the Cancer Hospital of Rio de Janeiro. == Political career == In 1985 he established PRONA. In 1989 he ran for the presidency in Brazil's first direct elections after the end of [[History of Brazil#Military rule|military rule]]. Under the electoral laws, every candidate was given a daily amount of free airtime to set out their agenda. As the amount of airtime was proportional to the candidate's party political size, PRONA only got roughly 15 seconds of airtime for each TV appearance. Nevertheless, he made the most of the opportunity. His exotic image — he was a small, [[bald]] man with a large beard and thick "coke-bottle" [[glasses]] — drew attention, as did his inflamed speech. In what would become his trademark, he finished it with the catchphrase ''Meu nome é Enéas'' ("My name is Enéas") — perhaps a gesture of humility or informality, or perhaps a way to save valuable time. The previously unknown politician was placed 12th out of a field of 21 candidates. He returned in 1994, making use then of 1 minute and 17 seconds. Surprising political experts, he finished ahead of various established politicians, such as the then-governor of [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|Rio de Janeiro]] ([[Leonel Brizola]]), the former governor of [[São Paulo]] ([[Orestes Quércia]]), and the then-governor of [[Santa Catarina (state)|Santa Catarina]] ([[Esperidião Amin]]), with more than 4.6 million votes. In 1998, Enéas got 35 seconds — less, in total airtime, than what he had in 1989 — to deliver a speech that was more nationalistic than ever. Its ideas, such as the construction of an [[atomic bomb]], [[nationalization]] of Brazil's mineral resources, and increasing the [[Military of Brazil|military]] budget, sparked controversy. According to him, with such apparatus Brazil could impose its interests in the UN and other international treatises. His project focused basically on education, believing that only a strong, interventionist and technical State would solve Brazil's problems. Although many may label him as an authoritarian, his political approach is similar to a social democracy like in Sweden and Finland for example, where the State is extremely important. In 2000 he ran for mayor of the city of [[São Paulo, São Paulo|São Paulo]], with no success, but he still managed to gain votes for the election of his councilman candidate [[Havanir Nimtz]]. In 2002 he ran for a seat as a federal deputy, representing São Paulo, and secured the most-ever votes for that office. His party won enough votes, through the proportionality system, to elect five more deputies. Enéas also participated actively in elections for mayors and councilmen in 2004, helping to choose councilmen in some major cities, such as Rio and São Paulo, and mayors in small cities. In 2006 he was elected again as a federal deputy for São Paulo, this time with the third highest vote in the state. == Praise and criticism == Many saw Enéas as an exotic politician because of his direct criticism to Brazilians fraudulent politicians behavior. Enéas believed that by acting on TV what he called "the rage of the common citizen" would wake up Brazilian people against corrupt politicians.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/user/EneasTV|title=YouTube|author=|date=|website=www.youtube.com|accessdate=22 January 2019}}</ref> == Death == Enéas underwent [[chemotherapy]] in a [[hospital]] for [[myeloid leukemia]]. When it became clear that his treatment was not resulting in improvements, he decided to return home, where he remained until his death. Enéas died on 6 May 2007 at approximately 2 p.m., in the [[Laranjeiras]] neighborhood of southern Rio de Janeiro. His remains were cremated and his ashes scattered over the [[Bay of Guanabara]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://g1.globo.com/Noticias/Politica/0,,MUL32252-5601,00.html|title=G1 > Política - Morre o deputado federal Enéas Carneiro|website=g1.globo.com|language=pt-br|access-date=2018-11-24}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www1.folha.uol.com.br/folha/brasil/ult96u91951.shtml|title=Folha Online - Brasil - Morre no Rio o deputado federal Enéas Carneiro - 06/05/2007|website=folha.uol.com.br|access-date=2018-11-24}}</ref> After his death, on 8 May 2007, Enéas was honored in a rally against abortion in [[Brasília]], on May 8, 2007.
