How long until we can call his presidency a failure?
One year?
Two years?
With goals like cleaning government corruption he's probably going to end up dead sooner than later.

Would you say the same thing about Trump?

Trump isn't a progressive liberal, in case in whatever reality you live in doesn't get the news.

So now we get Northern Venezuela to share a border with.... yay!!!

Hope he goes goes straight progressive liberal in all things.

Then in a few years we can nuke the place and finally have a secure southern border.

You want to nuke millions of innocent women and children so you can have a secure border??
Wow.
How many guns do you own and are they in every room of your house?

Quick to bring up women and children.

Care to add up how many have died in the cause of progressivism?

Let's ask Hitler, Stalin, Lenin, Mao, Pol Pot, etc, etc, etc.

But hey! It's the 21st century now so a fatally flawed ideology will work now because we're better human beings?

I'll be nice to you... we can call it Southern Chicago.

Being a Liberal in Mexico is not necessarily the same as in the US.
One group may use logic and reason .
The other group , nearly non-existent "As shown on TV"(to borrow from the old Ronco commercial)
Which is which ?

The Cartels put a Lefty in, imagine that.

Bad guy, Good guy it doesn’t matter anymore, his presidency is a matter of survival. I wonder how long he can stay ALIVE by dodging the provocative bullets fired from its “northern neighbor”.

Didn't he also say his people should flood our border?

I don't need "the herb" to be legal that badly.

Not quite. What he said was

"Soon, very soon, after the victory of our movement, we will defend migrants all over the American continent and the migrants of the world who, by necessity, must abandon their towns to find life in the United States; it’s a human right we will defend."

Meaning he thinks he knows what the USA rights are better than the USA.

Ummmm. yeah... I don't think Mexico is going to get cleaned up unless the US Military does it. Remember when Mexico tried to arm up / special ops their military? They decided to go into business themselves. Look up Los Zetas.


Mexico goes to the polls this weekend. 132 politicians have been killed since campaigning began, per one count

www.cnn.com...

In the nine months leading up to this weekend's presidential election, 132 politicians have been killed. That's according to Etellekt, a risk analysis and crisis management firm.

The group's report, released Tuesday, found that 22 of Mexico's 31 states have seen a political assassination since campaigning began in September.

Etellekt's tally found 48 of the victims were candidates. The rest included party workers.

"These numbers anticipates a serious challenge of security for peace and democratic governance in these regions, and could debilitate the political party," the firm said.

So his goal is to pump illegal immigrants from all over the world into the US. His rhetoric makes it sound like the Marines need to visit the halls of Montezuma one more time.

When the entire government is corrupt and owned by the cartels, it would pretty much be a war since you cannot trust the government forces, politicians or police to be on our side if we went after the cartels for real.

I saw a move yesterday called Sicario. ( www.imdb.com... ) Human trafficking out of Mexico is now BIG BUSINESS for the cartels, if the movie's theme is accurate.

How did he come out alive?


Does that suggest he is corrupt or has good bodyguards?

I'm a cynic

(CNN) — Even for a country numbed by escalating violence, the toll the campaign season in Mexico has exacted is horrifying. In the nine months leading up to this weekend’s presidential election, 132 politicians have been killed.

Yeah because it is true. Whether it is just holding a replica of his severed head, or just outright saying it in a song, or just talking. People have said it about Trump.

So he is going to fight the drug lords and Trump?

Well he might, and that is a very big might, be able to beat them.
But any great leader knows you do not fight a two front war. That is concerning as to whether he will succeed or not.

a reply to: TheConstruKctionofLight

There is more political theater in Mexico than the US. The drug lords don’t much care about the politics of the political leaders just as long as they do what they are told. Sure there will be a little theatrical activity to make the politicians look like they are doing something but nothing that really effects the cartels. A few sacrifices of durg lords may occur but these guys were probably more like government hits directed by the other cartels. They are dug in deep and nothing is going to root them out.

Wish him well but the most powerful group in Mexico seems to be the Cartels. They won't go quietly.

Better start researching who is VP is.

My wife is from mexico, the cartels hate the current government and they are the ones who declared war on the cartels which started all the killings the last decade or so. According to her the cartels love this guy. The government has tried to get cartel members to kill him even chappo and they wont. So we will see.

No VP in the Mexican gov. If the President can’t serve it falls to the Sec of The Interior until Congress appoints a temp Pres.

No, he wants to offer amnesty and start with a clean slate and keep cartels from messing with the citizens. The government declaring war on then a decade ago is what started all the crap, that and the government trying to sell all natural resources and taking the money and leaving if he wins. One of the guys running has warrents in the USA and EU according to my wife of course. We came to vacation on south padre island and for her to vote. She seems happy about it.

No, all the people and even cartel like this guy. If he can stop the killings without declaring war on the cartels that is a big step forward. Cartels are no good in any way but if it stops death, thats even better then the current situation.

Did he not say that the Mexican people should try to go to t

"Our communities are not alone," Peña Nieto said. "The Mexican Government will provide them with the legal advice, which guarantees the protection they require."

"Where there is a Mexican migrant at risk that requires our support, your country should be there," Peña Nieto said in a brief address to his nation, which he said was a response to Trump's actions earlier in the day.

Specifically, he said, "the 50 Mexican consulates in the United States will become authentic advocates for the rights of migrants." He didn't provide details on what he said he wanted them to do.

Why doesn't he just make their home a better place for them to live so they don't have to come to the U.S. illegally?

a reply to: carewemust

You should ask him or the previous admin. Maybe also look at his platform and what promises he made. In other words its like asking what Trump felt about Weiner's laptop on the day of his inauguration.

You're better than that care-you-must.
