While some politicians try to ban videogames, others, like Mexico's President, Felipe Calderón, go as far as publicly admit they like them!

Calderón, whose favorite game is Age of Empires, even had some Flash videogames to promote his presidential campaign up at his website. Sadly, those games are now gone and nowhere to be found. But you can check out tepocatas.com for more Flash videogames of Mexican politicians.

This isn't the first time a Mexican president has declared his fondness for games, as ex-president Vicente Fox once invited some orphans to 'play Nintendo' over at his ranch. We live in a weird world.
