Please, please stop making fun of el Zurdo. He is a direct descendant of a previous president of Mexico, The General Abelardo L. Rodriguez who held office in 1934-1936. His family does not recognize him because he was born out of wedlock but he is still a Rodriguez. His political ambition came during his early years when he lived in The Casita of “Los Pinos,” the Mexican White House. His dad’s statue is set in the 3 President Plaza in Guaymas. He is now a dignitary of the PRD, an emerging Mexican political power.
