What is it About Samuel Garcia?

On 12 November, Samuel Garcia, the Nuevo Leon governor, formally announced his bid for the presidency under the banner of the center-left Citizens’ Movement. The party has become a platform for the young scions of political royalty like Monterrey Mayor Luis Donaldo Colosio — the son of a PRI presidential candidate assassinated in 1994 — or Juan Ignacio Zavala, the nephew of former President Felipe Calderon.
