News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

Ex-Mexican Leader Accused of Violating Law

MEXICO CITY (AP) -- Mexico's largest leftist party announced Wednesday that it is filing a legal complaint against former President Vicente Fox, accusing him of violating the law by intervening against its presidential candidate who lost last year.

The Democratic Revolution Party, or PRD, accuses the Fox administration of having supported current President Felipe Calderon with public comments, government television ads, and other means. Mexican law prohibits the president and other officials from using their office to support or oppose candidates.

The PRD claims that comments made by Fox last week at the Kennedy Center in Washington amount to a confession that he helped Calderon win the 2006 race.
