Madero had an interest in spiritism and he was a follower of the books of Allan Kardec. Allegedly, he only became president because he followed the advice of spirits.

>Rest of Mexicans are shit and thus flee into the US badlands or openly revolt
You won't see another Judas at the Jockey Club anytime soon unless that wall goes up. I'll give you that. However, what the PRI revolted against is what Mexico became after they lost power.

The foremost book on the Porfiriato, yes, but it's named after an event that happened that acted as a catalyst for the revolution.
