Change Mexico: President and Lopez

change mexico: Revelers donned masks bearing Lopez Obrador's likeness in what supporters have dubbed AMLOFest, a play on the president's initials. ; Polls say more than half of Mexicans support the way Lopez Obrador is running the country, despite rising homicide rates and a floundering economy that is flirting with recession, according to The Japan Times. Lopez Obrador has big ambitions to change Mexico. The mood in the Zocalo was festive, with an orchestra from the president's home state of Tabasco playing tropical music inspired by Cuban sounds while scantily clad women danced next to them. He says, often, that for the good of all the poor must take priority and vows to staunch widespread corruption. In a speech Sunday, the president tallied his achievements so far, such as the rollout of new social programs aimed mostly at helping the young, elderly and indigenous. He calls his presidency the Fourth Transformation, equating it with national milestones like Mexico's independence from Spanish rule. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
