Is it all ending or is it just beggining?

There's just a couple days ahead before the end of electoral campaigns for the next President of Mexican Republic. Republic? Really? Or are we just stumbling with the overwhelming future of yet another 71 years of domination and repressive measures?  a dictatorship held by many names? are we just going to sit and watch some guy do whatever the hell he wants with our life and our future just because he's "handsome"?
NO. I won't.
Some people say that  Andres Manuel López Obrador is just the same as all the fuckin' politics out there, that he's just there for the money, that he's deceiving us all. They say he's another Hugo Chavez, another Castro. That he's gonna lead us to poverty, that he'll take our posessions and give them to poor people, disregarding the fact that you probably fought many years to have a home, or a car, or whatever the hell you want.
They're wrong. Maybe he's not the "true change" he announces, but he's gonna set a precedent. He's gonna tell people THEY HAVE THE POWER TO BRING TRUE CHANGE. Maybe we'll start thinking different. Maybe our people's image of themselves will change.
I certainly hope so.
I took this pictures in the campaign closure at my town.
Some of them are quite pretty.
