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!
