Vicente Fox worked his way from ranch hand to the youngest CEO in Coca-Cola's history to president of Mexico. He began his political career with the National Action Party, was elected governor of Guanajuato and ran for president in ‘00. Since leaving office in ‘06, Fox has been involved in public speaking and with the Fox Center, Mexico's first presidential library. He's also written his autobiography, Revolution of Hope. Last month, he was elected co-president of the Centrist Democratic International, an international organization of political parties.
