Back to the future in PAN: Ernesto Ruffo to head Vázquez Mota campaign

A bit of interesting news for students of the Partido Acción Nacional (PAN): Ernesto Ruffo returns to politics in order to coordinate the campaign of Josefina Vázquez Mota to be the party's presidential candidate.

As you may recall, Ernesto Ruffo Appel was the first-ever governor of a state not belonging to the PRI: In 1989, he won the governorship of Baja California for PAN, but has in recent years been somewhat alienated from the party.

Fun fact 1: He was born in San Diego
Fun fact 2: He supports the legalization of drugs.
