Courage is not a matter of gender.

I am a woman, I am a housewife, I am a government official, I've been twice a government secretary, I've been leader of a parliamentary group, I am an economist.

I will be a president in a skirt, but I will wear the pants.

We begin the path toward defeating Mexico's real adversary, who represents authoritarianism and the worst antidemocratic practice, who represents a return to corruption as a system and impunity as conviction. That adversary is Pena Nieto and his party.

Today I'm committed to take care of your families like I've taken care of mine. I want to make Mexico the best country to live in.

I want to be president because I have the sensitivity, as a woman, to listen. I'm a different candidate... different because I don't belong to powerful, privileged groups, because I'm honest.

We have a circle of corruption and impunity that is too strong.
