Easy. Obregon (and others) won that war, and threw Villa off the back of the sleigh. Once Mexico devolves into civil war (again), though, we’ll see Pancho Villa turn into a hero soon enough, I think.
General Villa didn’t have El Che’s dreamy checkbones.
Don’t forget the HBO move “And Starring Pancho Villa As Himself”.
He’s Paunchy. Socialist heroes are never fat.
