A man without an abundant experience in politics, a man very different from his predecessors and one of whose parents had been born abroad, runs for the presidency of his country through a grassroots movement, great oratory and the promise of change in big, bold letters.  His campaign imposed his candidacy on his party and eventually clinched the presidency with enormous expectations.  The handover between administrations was smooth and the incoming government met with support from the international community.

I'm not talking about Barack Obama in '09, but Vicente Fox in 00'.  I hope against hope that the sky-high expectations don't crash this time, as the challenges are many.
