	World Mayor: Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador - Runner up of World Mayor 2004
		Obrador – or AMLO, as he is sometimes called – supported native Tabascans through the work of an institute he oversaw, and “The good of all, but most of all, of the poor”, has been his credo ever since.
		Obrador has, with characteristic energy, pointed out that innumerable similar court orders have routinely been ignored by other officials, who have not been prosecuted, and in the case of one of the roads in question (which was to provide access to a hospital), at least, an alternative road has since been built.
		Foreign onlookers may be inclined to ridicule Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador’s use of a series of comic books to convey his and his party’s vision of current political realities in Mexico City (and Mexico the country and, even, beyond) that seem almost to mythologize the forces and some of the individuals involved.

		Obrador — or AMLO, as he is sometimes called — supported native Tabascans through the work of an institute he oversaw, and ?The good of all, but most of all, of the poor?, has been his credo ever since.
		Obrador seems enthusiastic and, halfway through his term, told the Mexican national assembly that his programme to meet it was half completed.
		Obrador, whose own record is as impeccable as his stated principles, has reacted with fury, a disavowal of knowledge, and accusations of conspiracy.

	Impeachment of Mexico City mayor sparks political crisis (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Lopez Obrador is alleged to have ignored a 2001 court order to compensate a landowner who had won a $164 million judgment against the city.

	The Mess in Mexico The scandalous indictment of Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador has roiled Mexico. by Jeff Faux

		So Lopez Obrador is counting in part on the impact of civil unrest with foreign investors to force the government to back down.

		Amlo's legal problems would be far less notable if not for the fact that as mayor of the country's largest metropolis -- with wide support from the city's massive bureaucracy -- he has been a front- runner in opinion polls for some months.
		The Lopez Obrador case is hardly the "witch hunt" that his defenders claim, since he apparently defied a court that ruled against his dubious use of expropriated land.
		Lopez Obrador is a victim of discretionary application of the law, he is also a practitioner.
