This morning in San Miguel de Allende, I had the opportunity to meet with and hear Beatriz Paredes present her vision as an aspiring president of Mexico.

Paredes, along with Xóchitl Gálvez, are now the only two remaining candidates competing to be nominated by the opposition coalition of the PAN, PRI and PRD political parties.
