The President of the United Mexican States ((スペイン語:Presidente de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos))〔Article 80, Constitution of Mexico. 〕 is the head of state and government of Mexico. Under the Constitution, the president is also the Supreme Commander of the Mexican armed forces. The current President is Enrique Peña Nieto, who took office on December 1, 2012. Currently, the office of the President is considered to be revolutionary, in that the powers of office are derived from the Revolutionary Constitution of 1917. Another legacy of the Revolution is its ban on re-election. Mexican presidents are limited to a single six-year term, called a ''sexenio.'' No one who has held the post, even on a caretaker basis, is allowed to run or serve again. The constitution and the office of the President closely follow the presidential system of government. ==Requirements to hold office== Chapter III of Title III of the Constitution deals with the executive branch of government and sets forth the powers of the president, as well as the qualifications for the office. He is vested with the "supreme executive power of the Union." To be eligible to serve as president, Article 82 of the Constitution specifies that the following requirements must be met: * Be a natural-born citizen of Mexico ("''mexicano por nacimiento''") able to exercise full citizenship rights, with at least one parent who is a natural-born citizen of Mexico. * Be a resident of Mexico for at least twenty (20) years. * Be thirty-five years of age or older at the time of the election. * Be a resident of Mexico for the entire year prior to the election (although absences of 30 days or fewer are explicitly stated not to interrupt residency). * Not be an official or minister of any church or religious denomination. * Not be in active military service during the six months prior to the election. * Not be a secretary of state or under-secretary of state, attorney general, governor of a State, or head of the government of the Federal District, unless "separated from the post" (resigned or been granted permanent leave of absence) at least six months prior to the election. * Not have been president already, even in a provisional capacity (see Succession below). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「President of Mexico」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
