Are you a domestic terrorist?

Given how stupid Mexico was, and remains, collectively, yes he was. He was precisely what Mexico wanted and needed, over and over. You might recall that he initially fought for the Royalist (should we say Spanish?) side during the Revolution ... and yet, he still became president of the independent Mexico numerous times.

As I said before, about Mexico's cultural incompetence ... he's a fine case study, in terms of his relationship with Mexico writ large.

So, if I follow correctly... because Mexico was and is stupid, they want and need their stupidest leaders, which can then be said to be good for them?

No entiendo, señor. Wouldn't it still be better to have good leaders? For instance, I don't recall Juarez being quite such a chump. Even Porfirio Diaz seems like a pretty swell guy, by comparison.
