To use the F word is disgusting. Why doesn't he increase the minimum wage in his country? Why isn't doing more to end drugs, violence and crime? He should make sure that there is safe and sanitary working conditions. Why isn't he making sure that people who want a work or student visa to USA can do so legally and make it affordable.

Is he Catholic?

Why isn't President Fox speak out against Obama and his administration who has issued work, student visas and automatic citizenships to people from middle east.
While people from Mexico and South America who border this country are discriminated against.

No president especially Obama is leader of the free world. He is barely leader of the United States.

Ok Correction . He is a former President of Mexico. What kind of Catholic would use the F word. It seems he is following in the Clinton's footsteps by giving talks.

MEXICO CITY — It is not easy for any reporter to cover drug trafficking in Mexico, a country where more than 80 journalists have been shot, stabbed, bludgeoned to death or decapitated since 2006.

But despite the risks, journalist and author Anabel Hernandez not only covers the issue, but also levels accusations of narco corruption in the country's most powerful institution: the presidency.

In articles and books, she has alleged links between kingpins such as Joaquin "Chapo" Guzman and a series of Mexican presidents, including Vicente Fox, who ruled from 2000 to 2006, and Felipe Calderon, in power from 2006 to 2012.

According to Hernandez, these leaders' war on drugs was a farce in which they used soldiers and police to help out Guzman's Sinaloa cartel.

And despite Guzman's dramatic arrest in February by Mexican marines, Hernandez suspects the Sinaloa Cartel is only growing in power under current President Enrique Peña Nieto.

"This war on drug trafficking was never real."
These accusations have major implications for Mexico, where more than 70,000 have died in cartel-related violence since 2006. But they also impact the United States, which has supported Mexico's fight against drug gangs with billions of dollars, while the US Drug Enforcement Administration and others have worked closely with the Mexican security forces under the command of these presidents.
