Lopez Obrador and The Economist journal opinion

I read an opinion of the author Bello, without a full name or bio information.  Is he/she a a journalist or what?, I do not know, but the Title of the paper states: "Mexico´s presidential front-runner misundertands his role model" Starting with a very provocative title like this, we do not know who is writing: a historian, economist, bussiness or finance jornalist, we do not know. We follow the reading and see the subtitle: "Lázaro Cárdenas was a proud institution-builder; not a populist". Here we have a clue that the person who writes, obviously is a Spanish-spoker since adds accent to the vowels of the name in the right Spanish, as we use to do. Clearly and without explanation what is the meaning of the term "populist" starts comparing General Cardenas with the current candidate to the presidency of Mexico, Lopez Obrador "atacking" with the term "populist". I then recall when in the past, Obama mentioned that term precisely here

What is PEMEX?

PEMEX or the acronym of PEtroleos MEXicanos, that is Mexican Oil, is the biggest and most important company of the Federal government. Expropiated by the Mexican government in 1938 with the money of the whole citizens, has been for longer the most important source of economical wealth for the country. Unfortunately due the vecinity with US, Mexico has no choice to become one of the most important supplier of that country. Mexico has been for longer the tempation of US for their wealthness of their natural resources, amomg them of course, the oil. Was during the presidency of Salinas de Gortari, one of the old regime, illegitimate president, who arised to the government after the "fall of the system" of the votes counting, when PEMEX again was opened to the foreign "investment", when instead of develop or strengthening of this resource, was sold very cheap with less added value in order to favor their friends, in and out of the country. Now, PEMEX tower, the

La razón es muy simple: en estos sitios los cultivos biotecnológicos pueden entrecruzarse con las variedades nativas cultivadas y silvestres. En las variedades nativas se insertarán y acumularán los genes artificiales o transgenes de los cultivos transgénicos: esto implica incertidumbres, riesgos y daños inadmisibles. A más de 15 años de su liberación, prácticamente todos los beneficios prometidos por los cultivos transgénicos han sido desmentidos (por ejemplo, no producen más que los no transgénicos), mientras que los estudios científicos documentan daños.

In memoriam... PLAZA PÚBLICA Enrique Ebrard, Marcelo Peña Miguel Ángel Granados Chapa 13 Oct. 11 Antes de que caiga el telón no quiero dejar de presentar a ustedes a dos protagonistas de la escena pública que, por primera vez en su vida, tienen que pugnar, aunque con ventaja sobre sus contendientes, por una posición que les permita gobernar. Ambos se han sentado en sillas de gobierno, pero no llegaron a ellas merced a un esfuerzo propio, sino impulsados por mecenas políticos y financieros que en todo tiempo aseguraron su porvenir. Ahora no están en ese caso. Tienen que ganarlo. Abundan las coincidencias en su personalidad y su conducta. Tanto que una y otra son confundibles y pueden, por lo tanto, ser intercambiables. Se trata de Enrique Ebrard y Marcelo Peña. A pesar de que sus estrategias buscaban conducirlos sin obstáculo ni adversario a la candidatura en sus partidos, en este momento tienen que bregar por ella. Enrique Ebrard iba a construirse, por la l

"The Office" by Carlos Salinas denies "proposal" for discussion. The LIC Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador won bedate against the usurper SALINAS.

From: http://www.jornada.unam.mx/ 2011/09/13/politica/015n2pol La Jornada Tuesday September 13, 2011, p. 15 September 12, 2011 The office of former President Carlos Salinas de Gortari received a letter from Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador degree in which the front row of a false assumption. As shown in AMAI communication (which is attached), at no time ex-President Salinas said his desire to discuss with Mr. López Obrador or any aspirant to any elective office. Consequently, without merit "acceptance" of the defeated presidential candidate in 2006 to the nonexistent "proposal" to hold a debate with the former president. So if a newspaper version prompted the presidential candidate and former candidate for the office again to be invited to hold some kind of exchange with the former president, you can now check that this invitation has not happened. And you can bet that neither will happen, because, unlike Mr. López Obrador, former President Salinas did not
