Could AMLO do it? « The Mex Files →
One thing that didn’t cross my mind at the time was that AMLO was just a bit ahead of the curve… #OccupyReforma in 2006 had a more than single purpose political party agenda, questioning the entire premise of the nation’s control by the elites. That kind of street action may have been seen as an unconscionable imposition on suburban commuters back then, but like everywhere else on the planet (#Occupy… Tahir Square, Wall Street, London, Paris, Madrid, Athens, Santiago… and on and on), middle-class people are demanding economic change, something AMLO’s been talking about for a very long time, and it may pay off for him.
