Todays Politics of the Mexican Government
Even with the National Action Party’s 61-year existence it was only able to gain the support required to win an election this past year (lcweb2, frd_7olY). The party had always, with the exception of two elections, been able to win second place to the Institutional Revolutionary Party. It took the character of Vicente Fox to win the popular vote and remove the long ruling PRI. Fox wasn’t the only force helping to end the 71 year one party rule, the National Democratic Institute, which oversees the validity of elections in democratically struggling countries, watched carefully to see that the PRI did not continue its traditional election tampering. With the election of Fox, the Mexican people are expecting the new party to do what the former government couldn’t. If Fox fails it could lead the country away from the path to democracy. Vicente Fox is a 58-year-old divorced father of four adopted children who had spent most of his adult life rising through the political ranks and fighting the PRI the whole way. He was not unaccustomed to fighting his way to success after his career with Mexico’s Coca-Cola Corporation. He began at Coke as a route supervisor and within 10 years became the company’s youngest president at age 3
