De vender gelatinas a buscar la Presidencia de México. Desde su irrupción en el tablero electoral, Xóchitl Gálvez se convirtió en la obsesión del presidente López Obrador. Hasta ese momento, la próxima elección presidencial no parecía una competencia real: se anticipaba como una sucesión elegida por AMLO, una transición entre candidatos del mismo partido, un juego de "corcholatas".

Tutto parte dall'Emilia e dalle lezioni politiche della madre, dalle partite di calcio al Campo Volo nella Reggio Emilia rossa degli anni Cinquanta. Romano Prodi si racconta per la prima volta in queste pagine scritte con Marco Ascione, giornalista del "Corriere della Sera": la vita intensa di un protagonista della nostra storia che ha sempre "interpretato a soggetto" da riformista, sì, ma a modo suo. Vicino alla Democrazia cristiana, ma non dentro.

Wer den Einfluss verstehen will, den China auf die deutsche Wirtschaft ausübt, muss den Namen Gerhard Ludwig Flatow kennen. Er war wohlhabender Stahldirektor und Kommunist, Abenteurer und Lobbyist, sprach fließend chinesisch und wurde in den Fünfziger und Sechziger Jahren zum wichtigsten Agenten der Chinesen in Deutschland. Dabei hat er es verstanden, völlig unbekannt zu bleiben–bis der Wirtschaftspublizist und Chinakenner Bernd Ziesemer die Fäden zusammenführte und entdeckte, dass ein Maoist und ein Industrieller ein und dieselbe Person waren.

Al verlo en el centro del Salón de Tesorería, un magno espacio construido para la realeza española del siglo XVI, me di cuenta de que no hablaba como presidente, político o siquiera líder social, sino como un pastor espiritual que se dirige a su grey. La primera vez que fui a la mañanera, vi a Andrés Manuel López Obrador de una manera distinta. No era aquel que conocí en 1995, en Villahermosa,platicando sobre el futuro del movimiento social que ya encabezaba. Tampoco era el hombre que tomaba pozos petroleros ni el candidato en permanente campaña.

Nos muestra, en fin, que el Padre de la Patria es un gran desconocido para sus hijos.
