Enrique Peña Nieto is the official presidential candidate of the Partido Revolucionario Institucional or PRI to the 2012 Mexican Presidential Elections. He was governor of the State of Mexico and now has decided at aged 45 to become a presidential candidate. Even though he has political connections, he is a lawyer with a master's in business.
He became familiar with the PRI when he became a member in 1984. He learned the ropes by being an instructor in PRI's Electoral Training Center and a Coordinator for the party's Parliamentary Group in the LV Legislature. He also functioned as Chairman of the Political Coordination Board of the same legislature.
He was involved in the Mexican State government from the 90's up until 2002. While there, he was Government Administration Secretary, President of the Directive Council for the Social Security Institute, President of the Internal Council of Health Institute and Vice President of the Government Board for Integral Family Development System He was also able to gain membership in the National Institute of Public Administration and the Administrative Council for Decentralized Public Agencies.
Nieto exemplified what it means to be dedicated to politics by also being a political advisor to the PRI in addition to everything else. Everything he has done within the PRI organization has led up to this moment in time as a presidential candidate. His elaborate and systematic plan of action from state government to presidential candidate has been steady.
In 2004, he played a role in nominating candidates for governor of the state of Mexico. He had to advance past many other candidates. He represented the PRI as the gubernatorial candidate in February of 2005.
Elections for the state of Mexico were held on July 3, 2005. He was a clear winner with 49 percent of the vote. On September 15, 2005, he was sworn in as constitutional Governor of the state of Mexico at the Morelos Theater in Toluca before a crowd of 5,000 people.
More than anything he wanted to change things in the areas of The environment, energy reform and sustainable development and the acceleration of educational reform in support of youth empowerment and employment generation A true politician, he proved himself extremely capable of handling conflict within the party. The state's economy, housing and agriculture business all benefited from his time in office.
He waited until the end of his term to run for the presidency. Oddly, Senator Manlio Fabio Beltrones, his only opponent decided not to run. Beltrone's decision not to run has enabled the PRI party to get behind Nieto one hundred percent.
Despite his seemingly meteoric rise to power, Pena Nieto is considered to be the next president of Mexico. Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador of the leftist PRD party and Josefina Vazquez Mota of the ruling party PAN are fair game, and Pena Nieto hasn't wasted any time to discredit them and now holds made up political polls where, quite naturally, he is the winner. The official election for Mexico's 80 million people will be held on July 1 of this year.
The PRI expects their candidate to win. Mexico has always called their head of state president, but truthfully, men who were more like dictators have ruled Mexico, and Enrique Pena Nieto hopes to change all that. Pena Nieto looks forward to a Mexico free from marauding and fleeing citizens.
