This is the portuguese Cardinal Patriarch of Lisbon, D. José Policarpo. Only some towns have a Patriarch, like Lisbon and Venice. I remember in the times of the Conclave he was seen as very much papabili. They said he is very well-educated.

From Daylife:
Cardinal Jose da Cruz Policarpo, of Portugal, left, sips his coffee as Bishop Walter Brandmueller watches during a break in a meeting of cardinals summoned by Pope Benedict XVI for a day of reflection at the Vatican, Friday, Nov. 19, 2010, the day before a ceremony to create 24 new cardinals. The top agenda, religious freedom, grew remarkably timely given China's planned ordination Saturday of a bishop who doesn't have the Pope's approval. The Vatican warned China that efforts at reconciliation would be set back if bishops loyal to the pope were forced to attend the ordination. The Vatican said such actions would constitute "grave violations of freedom of religion and freedom of conscience.'' Brandmueller is one of the 24 prelates that will be elevated to cardinal on Saturday.
