| | Mexican Revolution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The triumph of the PNR marked the beginning of a political tradition of loyalty (some claim submission) to the current president, a tradition that lasted approximately seventy years, as each president distributed patronage and effectively chose the state governors and named his successor, through the PRI's monopoly on power. | | | Violence continued until the late 1920s, ending only when the Partido Nacional Revolucionario (which later became the Partido Revolucionario Institucional or "PRI") sealed its monopoly on political power in and after 1928. | | | Calles also started the Partido Nacional Revolucionario (National Revolutionary Party or "PNR") which would later become the Partido Revolucionario Institucional (Institutional Revolutionary Party or "PRI"), the ruling party that would hold the presidency until the year 2000. |

| | Wilson’s handling of this revolution reflected not only the most fundamental building blocks upon which he based his life--covenant theology and his relationship with God--but it also demonstrated how these principles permeated his political decisions, his tactics, and his long term diplomatic objectives. | | | Gardner emphasizes the President's willingness to use force to achieve his goals, a tendency Gardner labels his "covenant with power." Wilson was willing to use a traditional tool of old diplomacy--the military--in order to achieve new diplomatic ends. | | | Intervention in Mexico would "undoubtedly revive the gravest suspicions throughout all the states of Latin America." Moreover, if the United States acted to establish "order" in Mexico, it would only serve to further bind Mexico to American interests and businesses. |
