Peña Nieto pledges to write a new chapter in the nation’s glory and hope.

DOLORES HIDALGO – Enrique Peña Nieto was sworn in this week as the Institutional Revolutionary Party’s (PRI) presidential candidate. During his speech, he said that he is committed to Mexico, whose people neither want nor deserve more of the same bad government, but success and triumph for their country.

“I want to save Mexico because my commitment is to Mexico; to the greatness of Mexico,” he said.

National PRI leader Pedro Joaquín Coldwell swore in Peña Nieto as the presidential candidate at the Mariano Abasolo municipal auditorium, where, some 201 years ago, Manuel Hidalgo launched the first Mexican independence movement.

Before of an audience of nearly 1,600, including special guests and Green Party (PT) foot soldiers, Peña Nieto said that more than 200 years ago, “from this spot, Mexicans raised their voices to say no to more of the same.”

The “Committed to Mexico” alliance candidate said that Dolores Hidalgo symbolizes the bravery, courage, and indomitable spirit with which Mexicans face adversity, adding that he is certain that Mexicans, once again, have decided to take control of their destiny.

He said that the moment has come for responsible change that will bring Mexico a better future; in taking the oath as the presidential candidate for the PRI, he continued, he is taking on the most important commitment of his life, and he called on priístas, and the public, to “write, together, a new chapter in the glory and hope of Mexico.”
