DOCTOR MIRELES AND AMLO. MEXICO IS ABOUT TO CHANGE.

          Do you know who Doctor Mireles is? If not, you should, unless you don’t care what may be about to happen in Mexico. Who is Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador / AMLO? Again, if you are not aware and you live in the Americas, you need to know. How did I come across the topic of the Good Doctor? Well, that is a long story, but one I have enjoyed for several years now. I’ve posted about Doctor Mireles on many occasions and I had in-depth “discussions” about him in my prior life. Is he important to the future of Mexico? Yes. I was one of the few that sounded the alarm bells when the Autodefensa movement began. Pete. You remember those early conversations with the so called “experts”!   

An Alliance:

          Doctor Mireles openly supports AMLO. Now, that is an alliance that will not go over well in Mexico City. AMLO, the guy known for being left of left, the Mexican Bernie Sanders, but a little more left than Bernie. The guy who is riding a wave of social unrest in Mexico. By the way, not his first time of riding that wave. The guy who is making huge promises to a public that is desperate for change. Is he an outsider to the establishment of the PRI and the PAN? You bet. Is he squeaky clean? Nobody in politics is squeaky clean, but the good news for him is, the Mexican people know this. Is he making promises that will be very difficult to keep? Again, he’s a politician. Just how worried is the Mexican and “other” establishments over his pending win? No one is covering the story in the US and that should give you a clue.
          It’s true, AMLO has followed the Good Doctor from the beginning. Does the Doctor feel some level of commonality with him? Yes. Will it last? That depends. Can AMLO overcome the Billions of dollars the drug business pumps into Mexican government at all levels…… and I do mean all! Can the corruption that is Mexico’s government simply drag AMLO into the trenches and just time him out? Yes. Does AMLO know this? Yes. Does he truly intend to take on the real issue in Mexico’s government, corruption? Well, that’s what he says and that is what he is running on. Just how much “change” is about to take place in Mexico? I will say this, if it’s not enough, AMLO will lose the support of the number one Folk Hero in Mexico…. The Good Doctor.

Words of Warning:

          Doctor Mireles made a stern warning to President Nieto, not one of my favorite people as well, but why? What made the Mireles think Nieto was going to change the outcome of the election? Even more interesting is his insistence the Mexican government is moving its military into position for some event after the election on July 1st. AMLO is going to win. Would the establishment government in Mexico, one that AMLO is not currently part of, take action against its own people? If such an event was even being considered, the US government would be all over that issue and US media would have picked up on such a huge pending story. So, what is the Good Doctor referring to? Why did he make a direct appeal to the members of the Mexican Military? If any part of this interview was confusing to me, it was this issue. Mireles is a supporter of AMLO, but Mireles is not a follower and his support will be limited if anything starts to smell like compromise. The vision for the future of Mexico is somewhat compatible between these two figures and it wouldn’t surprise me to see AMLO reach out to The Good Doctor soon after election day. The problem comes when AMLO fails to deliver on all the changes. He is already perceived as moving to the “center” and looking more like Brazil’s Da Silva. Moving to the “Center” is not the sign The Good Doctor wants to see. There is no “Center” for Mireles. His dream is to “ change the social reality” of Mexico. These two may get along for now, but AMLO is about to become a President in a nation run by other people’s money. That is not the environment he and The Good Doctor will grow a relationship. The military is on the move according to the guy the common people in Mexico admire. What does that mean and is it even true? Keep your eye on Mexico. Things are changing and I am sure CNN will find a way to say it’s The Donald’s fault!
