Is anyone here keeping up with the Mexican elections?

What do you think of the candidates? I think they are all awful but AMLO is the one that scares me the most.

What. How an amlo scare you the most.

You must be the type of idiot who goes out and votes pri.

yes, but mexico needs something bigger than any of these candidates.
amlo hasn't a clue about what the country needs and the rest of them will sell out the country to neo-liberal scum.
there's no winning choice.

AMLO will restore the might of the Mexican Empire.

He will retake the senate and make mexico great again.

Fuck Pan, Fuck Pri, fuck everyone else. MMGA!

lol.
you really think the US won't try and screw with him.
maybe we're in more modern times, but i'm positive he'll just be lame duck.
mexico needs something bigger to change it. not some old ass socialist.

He's a nationalist, socialist, populist leader, and he speaks for the poor and downtrodden of mexico.

I want to restore my homeland to it's former glory, and to go back home.

He won't be lame duck because his political party also has a chance to become majority in congress, which is a big fuckin deal.

The US has always tried to screw with mexico, they're already trotting out the muh russians lie, but they wont say who the russians support cause it'll reveal who the US supports, and it'll reduce turnout for their beloved candidate.

You're right, this might require a revolution, again. However the US would just tip the scales, and we'd return to the same ol same old. A prosperous mexico is bad for the US.

I think he is a power hungry and stubborn(this is his 3rd time running) person who has really antiquated ideas on how to govern the country. You talk shit about PRI ( I agree they are awful and corrupt) but AMLO is pretty much PRI from the 70s.

You gloss over the fact that his first time around he lost by a 1% margin, AKA stolen from him.

Second time around, vote buying and coercion

How can anyone win against such massive corruption. When you're the only one playing ball fairly and everyone else is cheating, how can you win.

You have to applaud his Mexican Forged Tenacity.

Third time's the charm.

Pri from the 70's is before my time, so I guess you got me there, or maybe not, who knows.

Lets get this ball back in play.

45% of those surveyed support AMLO

Spoken like a true Patriot
