Guadalajara -
Andrés Manuel López Obrador, twice defeated for Mexico's presidency but an already announced contender for the 2018 election, yesterday called upon Enrique Peña Nieto to resign before Monday, Dec. 1, the latter's second anniversary in office.

López Obrador, whose comments were carried prominently by the voice of Mexico's far Left, wants new elections to be held so that a "legitimate government" may assume control of the nation.
In the above May 12, 2012 photo, then Democratic Revolution Party (PRD) nominee López Obrador was campaigning in Iguala, Guerrero, side by side with the husband and wife butchers of 43 college students whose incinerated remains have yet to be identified.
"I didn't know them at all," Obrador insists in reference to the former PRD mayor and his spouse.
