Political Career
Echeverría joined the faculty of the National Autonomous University of Mexico in 1947 and taught political theory. He rose in the hierarchy of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) and eventually became the private secretary of the party president, General Rodolfo Sánchez Taboada. Echeverría served as Interior Secretary under President Gustavo Díaz Ordaz from 1964 to 1970. He apparently maintained a hard line against student protesters throughout 1968. Clashes between the government and protesters culminated in the Tlatelolco massacre in October 1968, a few days before the 1968 Summer Olympics were held in Mexico City. In a separate incident, he ordered the transfer of 15% of the Mexican military to the state of Guerrero to counter guerrilla groups operating there. He became president in 1970. He is accused of irresponsible government spending, increasing inflation, and cronyism — which is symbolized by appointing his good friend and eventual successor José López Portillo as Finance Minister — violent devaluations of the peso, from 12.50 MXP per dollar in 1954 to 20 per dollar in late 1976, as well as for rising debt.

Once Echeverría became president, he embarked on a far-reaching program of populist political and economic reform, nationalizing the mining and electrical industries, redistributing private land in the states of Sinaloa and Sonora to peasants, opposing American "expansionism," supporting the leftist Chilean leader Salvador Allende, condemning Zionism, allowing the Palestine Liberation Organization to open an office in the capital, and imposing limits on foreign investment, and extending Mexico's patrimonial waters to 200 miles (370 km). He also created a special commission to destroy Mexico's forests, believing they were of no economic benefit, using that land for agriculture. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luis_Echeverría http://www.economia.com.mx/luis_echeverria_alvarez.htm http://www.superseventies.com/singles.html ABC-The Jackson 5(1970), Just my Imagination-The Temptations(1971), Lets Get It on-Marvin Gaye (1973), Play that funky music-Wild Cherry (1976) American Pie-Don Mclean(1972)

Began his political career with the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) in 1959. He held several positions in the administrations of his two predecessors before being appointed to serve as finance minister under Luis Echeverría, a close friend, from 1973 to 1975. His administration was marked by corruption scandals and the collapse of Mexico’s currency in his final year in office. López Portillo became notorious for graft and nepotism
He reformed Mexico’s tax structure, greatly increasing the government’s revenues. López Portillo undertook actions which were highly controversial with respect to the international banking establishment. One of his last actions as president, announced during his annual State of the Nation address on September 1, 1982, was to order the nationalization of the country's banking system. http://www.musicoutfitters.com/topsongs/1980.htm http://www.musicoutfitters.com/topsongs/1981.htm http://encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761572343/jose_lopez_portillo.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/José_López_Portillo Dancing Queen-Abba(1977), Staying Alive-Bee Gees(1978), I will Survive-Gloria Gaynor(1979), Another brick wall- Pink Floyd(1980), Jessie’s Girl- Rick Springfield(1981)

Miguel de la Madrid graduated with a bachelor's degree in Law from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) and received a master's degree in Public Administration from the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University, in the United States. He worked for Mexico's central bank and lectured in law at UNAM before securing a position at the Secretariat of Finance in 1965. Between 1970 and 1972 he was employed by Petróleos Mexicanos, Mexico's state-owned petroleum company Institutional Revolutionary Party In 1976 he was chosen to serve in José López Portillo's cabinet as secretary of budget and planning. He won the elections that took place on July 4, 1982, and took office the following December. He is a member of Collegium International, an organazation of leaders with political, scientific, and ethical expertise whose goal is to provide new approaches in overcoming the obstacles in the way of a peaceful, socially just and an economically sustainable world. He was a market-oriented President, and his time in power was one of the most difficult periods of the country because of his predecessors' policies, as well as the decreasing demand for oil. his administration's mishandling of the infamous 1985 earthquake in Mexico City damaged his popularity for initially refusing international aid, and it placed Mexico's delicate path to economic recovery on an even more precarious situation, as the destruction also extended to other parts of the country
He introduced liberal economic reforms that encouraged foreign investment, and widespread privatisations of outdated state-run industries and reduction of tariffs, a process that continued under his successors, which immediately caught the attention of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and other international observers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miguel_de_la_Madrid
