You really need to take the time to understand the reasoning of the Electoral College. Or are you so blinded by your liberal stake that you can’t see both sides.

The hypocrisy of the United States is amazing. Talk about a declining democracy, a corrupt Supreme Court and destroying of women’s rights. At least in Mexico, gay marriage and abortion are legal.

Quite true, Mr. Wagner. These indices tend to value checks and balances, rule of law and strong civil societies, which have been weakened under the AMLO administration has he seeks an more populist approach and centralized executive authority. His own party would seem more likely to continue with such an approach, though their candidate might not pursue some of the proposals he has laid out. The other party, hard to say. Obviously rhetorically they are opposed to this approach, but as a coalition, what they do once in power would be a bit uncertain.

From the standpoint of constitutions, no two countries are more alike: limited presidential terms, two houses of Congress, independent judiciary. There were a lot of changes that the Mexican writers made, after looking at their own history and the history of the US constitution. One of them was to make amendments somewhat easier. We’ll see if MORENA gets the super majority it says it wants, and whether Steinbaum actually will want to have those changes. The likelihood of mass demonstrations against them may give her the wiggle room to table them.

It tells us that the stakes are high, which is what the headline says. It’s not a research journal article.
