Actually that is what they teach us at school (Guadalupe Victoria) But no...it was Pedro Celestino Negrete he was a Spaniard...Once Iturbide abdicated the "Empire", there was no executive, so Negrete was nominated after the first Constitution of 1824 was drafted. He was responsible provisionally together with Nicolás Bravo y Guadalupe Victoria. But the reason why they don't teach that at school its why he was only 6 days in office and he was all by him self on this three party government. Not Bravo nor Victoria were in México City.\nHe was inaugurated thee 4th of October 1824 when the Constitution was promulgated. He lasted until the 10th of October. \nThen exactly, came Victoria (who by the way was not named like that, he adopted this name because of the virgin of guadalupe and victory, he was named Manuel Fernández Félix). G. Victoria was a mexican born in Tamazula, Durango (Nueva Galicia in that time).

Stephen Fuller Austin (November 3, 1793 – December 27, 1836), known as the "Father of Texas," led the Anglo-American colonization of the region. The city of Austin, Texas and Austin County, Texas are named in his honor. It is ironic that Austin is known as the "Father of Texas," since he certainly never started off with any intention of breaking Texas away from Mexico, though he certainly supported such at the end.\n\nAustin's plan for a colony was thrown into turmoil by the independence of Mexico from Spain in 1821. Governor Martínez informed Austin that the junta instituyente, the new rump congress of the government of Agustín de Iturbide, refused to recognize the land grant authorized by Spain, based on a new policy of using a general immigration law to regulate new settlement in Mexico. Austin traveled to Mexico City and managed to persuade the junta instituyente to authorize the grant to his father, as well as the Law signed by the Spanish Emperor on January 3, 1823. The old Imperial Law offered heads of families a league and a labor of land, 4,605 acres (19 km²), and other inducements. It also provided for the employment of agents, called empresarios, to promote immigration. As empresario, Austin himself was to receive 67,000 acres (270 km²) of land for each 200 families he introduced. According to the law, immigrants were not required to pay fees to the government. This fact soon led some of the immigrants to deny Austin's right to charge them for services at the rate of 12½ cents an acre ($31/km²).\n\nWhen the Emperor of Mexico, Agustín de Iturbide, abdicated in March 1823, the law was annulled once again. In April 1823, Austin induced the congress to grant him a contract to bring 300 families into Texas. In 1824 the congress passed a new immigration law that allowed the individual states of Mexico to administer public lands and open them to settlement under certain conditions. In March 1825 the legislature of the Mexican state of Coahuila y Tejas passed a law that was similar to the one authorized by Iturbide. The law continued the system of empresarios, as well as granting each married man a league of land, 4,428 acres (18 km²), with the stipulation that he must pay the state thirty dollars within six years.\n\nBy late 1825, Austin had brought the first 300 families, now known in Texas history as the Old Three Hundred, to the grant. Austin had obtained further contracts to settle an additional 900 families between 1825 and 1829. He had effective civil and military authority over the settlers, but he was quick to introduce a semblance of American law - the Constitution of Coahuila y Tejas was agreed on in November 1827. Despite his hopes Austin was making little money from his endeavors; the colonists were unwilling to pay for his services as empresario and most of the money gained was spent on the processes of government and other public services.\n\nHe was active to promote trade and to secure the good favor of the Mexican authorities, aiding them in the suppression of the Fredonian Rebellion of Haden Edwards. However, with the colonists numbering over 11,000 by 1832 they were becoming less conducive to Austin's cautious leadership, and the Mexican government was also becoming less cooperative - concerned with the growth of the colony and the efforts of the U.S. government to buy the state from them. The Mexican government had attempted to stop further U.S. immigration as early as April 1830, but again the skills of Austin had gained an exemption for his colonies.\n\nThe application of the immigration control and the introduction of tariff laws had done much to dissatisfy the colonists, peaking in the Anahuac disturbances. Austin then felt compelled to involve himself in Mexican politics, supporting the upstart Antonio López de Santa Anna. Following the success of Santa Anna the colonists sought a compensatory reward, proclaimed at the Convention of 1832 - resumption of imm

I don´t know very much about the election, but for I have heard I think Mexicans have to choose Felipe Calderon. He is of the same political party that Vicente Fox, and I think that if they choose him, Mexico will keep the same economical and social way, and that´s good.\n\nAndres Manuel Lopez Obrador, is a nacionalist man, and I think he will stop the social and economical refroms in Mexico, and it would be bad for Mexicans. He is like Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero in Spain.

He is the first and only Indigenous to become a Mexican President.  See mural done by the great Francisco Castro Pacheco of Benito Juarez.  (The word "Indian" is an insult and should never be used especially in Mexico).

Actually, the U.K has a prime minister...We have a president. Mexico is like us in this respect and they also have three branches of government just like us too. It is a federal republic meaning it is made of states and not provinces like the U.K.. The 5th of Feburary is when the Mexican contitution was signed btw. \n\nThe Mexican government was based on our constitiution and that is why I say it's most like ours.

May 5th, the battle of Puebla, you can think of that day as the equivalent of El Alamo to the US.\n\nIn May 5th of 1862, general Ignacio Zaragoza beat the frenchs in Puebla. It's considered a great victory because the mexican army was smaller in number. Even though Zaragoza won the battle, the frenchs won the war. The archduke Maximiliano de Habsburgo took the throne in 1864. Later another civil war started and Maximiliano was executed.\n\nThere is no way it's the mexican independence day. Mexican independence was fully recognized in 1821, 41 years before the battle of Puebla. Mexican independence is celebrated in September 16th.

i guess you don't know your MEXICAN HISTORY!\n\n\n\n\nThe 5th of May is not Mexican Independence Day, but it should be!Mexico declared its independence from mother Spain on midnight, the 15th of September, 1810.  And it took 11 years before the first Spanish soldiers were told and forced to leave Mexico. \n\nSo, why Cinco de Mayo?  And why should Americans savor this day as well?  Because 4,000 Mexican soldiers smashed the French and traitor Mexican army of 8,000 at Puebla, Mexico, 100 miles east of Mexico City on the morning of May 5, 1862. \n\nThe French had landed in Mexico (along with Spanish and English troops) five months earlier on the pretext of collecting Mexican debts from the newly elected government of democratic President (and Indian) Benito Juarez.  The English and Spanish quickly made deals and left.  The French, however, had different ideas. \n\nUnder Emperor Napoleon III, who detested the United States, the French came to stay.  They brought a Hapsburg prince with them to rule the new Mexican empire.  His name was Maximilian; his wife, Carolota.  Napoleon's French Army had not been defeated in 50 years, and it invaded Mexico with the finest modern equipment and with a newly reconstituted Foreign Legion.  The French were not afraid of anyone, especially since the United States was embroiled in its own Civil War. \n\nThe French Army left the port of Vera Cruz to attack Mexico City to the west, as the French assumed that the Mexicans would give up should their capital fall to the enemy -- as European countries traditionally did. \n\nUnder the command of Texas-born General Zaragosa, (and the cavalry under the command of Colonel Porfirio Diaz, later to be Mexico's president and dictator), the Mexicans awaited.  Brightly dressed French Dragoons led the enemy columns.  The Mexican Army was less stylish. \n\nGeneral Zaragosa ordered Colonel Diaz to take his cavalry, the best in the world, out to the French flanks.  In response, the French did a most stupid thing; they sent their cavalry off to chase Diaz and his men, who proceeded to butcher them.  The remaining French infantrymen charged the Mexican defenders through sloppy mud from a thunderstorm and through hundreds of head of stampeding cattle stirred up by Indians armed only with machetes. \n\nWhen the battle was over, many French were killed or wounded and their cavalry was being chased by Diaz' superb horsemen miles away.  The Mexicans had won a great victory that kept Napoleon III from supplying the confederate rebels for another year, allowing the United States to build the greatest army the world had ever seen.  This grand army smashed the Confederates at Gettysburg just 14 months after the battle of Puebla, essentially ending the Civil War. \n\nUnion forces were then rushed to the Texas/Mexican border under General Phil Sheridan, who made sure that the Mexicans got all the weapons and ammunition they needed to expel the French.  American soldiers were discharged with their uniforms and rifles if they promised to join the Mexican Army to fight the French.  The American Legion of Honor marched in the Victory Parade in Mexico, City. \n\nIt might be a historical stretch to credit the survival of the United States to those brave 4,000 Mexicans who faced an army twice as large in 1862.  But who knows? \n\nIn gratitude, thousands of Mexicans crossed the border after Pearl Harbor to join the U.S. Armed Forces.  As recently as the Persian Gulf War, Mexicans flooded American consulates with phone calls, trying to join up and fight another war for America. \n\nMexicans, you see, never forget who their friends are, and neither do Americans.  That's why Cinco de Mayo is such a party -- A party that celebrates freedom and liberty.  There are two ideals which Mexicans and Americans have fought shoulder to shoulder to protect, ever since the 5th of May, 1862.  VIVA! el CINCO DE MAYO!!

Mexico's only legitimate president is Felipe Calderon.\nHe was sworn in today December 1st, 2006. \nThe other man that has anounced himself as the legitimate president of Mexico (Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador) is a scorned presidential candidate that does not want to accept his loss. He did a symbolic presidential ceremony where he, proclaimed himself president without any official support or validty.

Si soy el presidente, construiría los gyms públicos libres para las comunidades. Si puedo controlar el dinero en el gobierno, distribuiría alguno a los ancianos para que compren medicina. También, animaría a ciudadanos que plantaran más árboles. También ayudaría al evironment ristricting la contaminación atmosférica. Si los ciudadanos exigen un ambiente más agradable, construiría más parques en la naturaleza. También limitaría la compra y la venta de SUVs.

That tradition got started when Mexico became an independent country. The sisters in the convent in Puebla were going to receive the new emperor, agustin de Iturbide, and decided to suprise him with a new dish, that had the colors of the new flag: The chiles en Nogada. \n\nFrom that time on, is customary for the presidents to eat this dish.
