A New Deal for Mexico
On Friday the Washington Post had a good article (and a great accompanying video) on the current presidential campaign in Mexico. The leftist Andrés Manuel López Obrador is proposing a New Deal for Mexico and modeling himself after FDR. The NYTs describes the conservative candidate, Felipe Calderón, as “a respectable model of the Latin American colorless, Harvard-educated, pro-business candidate.” The LATs says Obrador is in the lead with only a week to go. If he wins, many will declare Latin America’s turn to the left complete.
