Mexico's Cordero takes aim at presidency in 2012 | Reuters: "Mexican Finance Minister Ernesto Cordero said on Thursday he wants to run for president in the 2012 race that will revolve around spiraling drug violence and a moribund job market.
The 43-year-old National Action Party (PAN) member said he was not yet resigning his post, which he has held since January last year. ...
A poll in El Universal earlier this month showed Cordero was the least popular among four potential PAN candidates.
PRI state governor Enrique Pena Nieto is seen as the front-runner in the presidential race although the opposition party has not officially picked a candidate yet."
