How will Calderon be able to stop drug cartels, if the government itself is deeply involved with the drug cartels?

ReplyDeleteThis appears to be another step in Mexico being a narcogovernement. If the drug cartels successful manipulate the future elections then they will control the political party and the government, not just influence it as they do now. The entire system will be corrupt. Calderon attempted to fight the cartels but without such a president the problem will get out of hand. Which also means increased problems for the United States.
