Sadly, Por Los Niños still a political pawn

It saddens me that after years of trying to give helpful advice to Larry and the folks of the charitable organization Por Los Niños it appears all of my efforts to warn them not to allow themselves to be used as political pawns have fallen on deaf ears. Today's newspapers carry photos of Larry with one of the local political candidates for the mayorship dedicating a basketball court together. Heck, Larry, you might as well have simply made a campaign contribution!
Perhaps Larry and his group don't realize the precarious situation they have now placed themselves and all their work in. But after seeing this photo it wouldn't take much for one of this candidate's rivals to use the Artículo 33 of the Mexican Constitution to shut down Por Los Niños and expel Larry and his foreigner assistants from the country. I'm sure the subject will be discussed by some of them. Politics is a vicious arena with no holds barred, and if one of this guy's rivals think they can gain any political advantage by removing an apparent source of assistance to this candidate they will seize the opportunity, the kids and the charity bedamned.
Unfortunately it is precisely because Por Los Niños is not careful enough not to allow itself to be used by political interests that I cannot wholeheartedly offer them my support, as much as I would like to, and that's just a damn shame.
SMILE! YOU'RE PART OF THE CAMPAIGN!
