AMLO at el bato
AMLO is doing a whole bunch of sane and useful and MASSIVELY GOOD things for Mexico, and doing them FAST.
Along with the obviously good, he's also promoting an expansion of baseball in Mexico. He has made two or three speeches on the subject. In this brief clip he takes a turn at bat, makes a mighty swing, and fouls.
Unlike most USA politicians, AMLO doesn't pretend to be anything other than a politician. His job is politics and he's not ashamed to perform poorly in other jobs.
But I doubt that he's promoting baseball as an indirect way of saying "do your own job well." The purpose is still inscrutable.
