How did AMLO lose? I thought he was popular.
She is the continuation (at least seems so) of AMLO.
He didn't lose, he just cannot serve another term. She belongs to his party and he effectively campaigned for her. His popularity helped boost her in the election.
Thanks. It would be dope if they get a clear majority and use it to change the constitution.
The liberal media have already been portraying AMLO as a dictator for his "populist" policies, if his party tried to change the constitution to make it more leftist all the liberals would go crying to the US for intervention and regime change.
Liberals are already seething. Guessd in Mexico we are not "civilized" enough for a female president.
LMAO
this is similarly the current SK government's stance on getting called out for their sexism: "we can't be sexist, look at Afghanistan, that's sexism"
Mexico doesn't have second term for presidency (They started their Revolution in 1910 because of that issue). She is from his party, I think
Only one term per president? That seems a bit extreme.
There are very understandable reasons based in Mexican history for strict term limits.
6 years term though. And it is very ingrained thing on mexican political life after Porfirio Diaz ruled for almost 30 years and 6 terms in the beginning of the century
