José María Pino Suárez
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
José María Pino Suárez (September 8, 1869 – February 22, 1913) was a Mexican politician.
Pino Suárez was born in Tenosique, Tabasco. He was one of the collaborators with Francisco I. Madero in the early days of the Mexican Revolution. Following the success of the Maderista Revolution, he successfully ran for vice president, with Madero as president, representing the Progressive Constitutional Party (formally Antireelectionist Party). While serving as vice president, he was imprisoned and later shot along with Madero during the coup d'état led by Victoriano Huerta during La decena trágica in February 1913.
A main street in central Mexico City and Pino Suárez station on the Mexico City Metro are named in his honor.
