| | Online NewsHour: Cuahtemoc Cardenas -- August 12, 1997 |
 | | Like his father, Cuauhtemoc Cardenas was also a member of the PRI until he broke with it a decade ago to form his own political party. |
 | | CUAUHTEMOC CARDENAS: Well, he has to defend his positions, his government, his party, but I think that any election is in a way a referendum, so people voted, the majority against the PRI, what the PRI represents, against the present policies; that’s against the deterioration of living standards, against the increase of unemployment. |
 | | CUAUHTEMOC CARDENAS: What we are demanding is that the government’s policies have much more social content and that the government reassumes its social responsibilities. |
