The candidates will meet Sunday to debate the issues, but many in Mexico won't be watching as the two largest television networks have chosen not to air them, in favor of regular programming.

The whole system has failed and expired. The policitians and the Mexican private monopolies has teamed up to take advantage of the 60% impoverished population.
