| Link is in Spanish Google Translated excerpt: Nuevo Leon state PRI leader, Francisco Herrera Leon asked to think carefully where and with whom they want to go the PRI, because we must "keep preparing for what comes, without faltering or giving in." "There is no room for hesitation or for the simulation, ours is a ship bound with crew and captain at the helm. Nobody has to lose, all together we will come to fruition," he said. The remarks was given at the monument erected in memory of Luis Donaldo Colosio Murrieta, during the eighteen years after his death. Alsoin attendance were the sector leaders and organizations of the PRI, members of the CDE, local MPs, candidates for elected federal and Ali Jesus de la Torre, the PRI candidate to the State Government, Leo Herrera said Donaldo Colosio was a demanding critic who never betrayed his convictions. "He understood very clearly that the art of politics lies not in the graceful flight of their ideological convictions, but in strengthening their competitive edge." After the assassination of Donaldo Colosio, the entire upper tier of PRI, who were serving in then president Carlos Salinas de Gartari's cabinet was disqualified from replacing Colosio as the PRI candidate. Ernesto Zedillo Ponce de Leon was the best least worst choice for PRI candidate president of the republic. |
