Toward Left-wing Politics 

     The election is coming. Values shift toward abortion and other liberal social causes. including gay-affirming policies. Generous social programs keep the voters on board, although crime is out of control. 

     Neither Biden nor Trump can do anything about this. It describes our neighbor, Mexico, where they will elect a new leader this Sunday. 

     Claudia Sheinbaum, 61, leads by 27 points. She wears a rosery, crucifix, and has bragged about meeting Pope Francis. It's all for show in this largely Catholic nation. Sheinbaum is of Jewish heritage, but she holds no affiliation.  

     Mexico has three candidates on the ballot, all who support liberal social causes the church has condemned. There are two concerns most voters consider more important than morality. They want current generous social programs to continue, and they want crime stopped.

     The current president won loyalty with government handouts to lower classes the ruling elite have ignored. Sound familiar? Meanwhile, he has harmed family, life and liberties.

     Americans have an interest in Mexico. Criminals ship fentanyl and other deadly drugs to the U.S. There is no one on the ballot who signals opposition. The president has discouraged police from confronting cartels, which took over 12 mid-sized cities, and tourist areas are no longer off limits. 

     Homicides top 30,000/year, and 50 priests have been killed since 2006. Mexico has been under liberation theology since the 1960s. Isn't that when liberalism took over the U.S. Democrat Party?
