Felipe de Jesús Calderón Hinojosa (Spanish pronunciation: , born on August 18, 1962) is the current President of Mexico. He assumed office on December 1, 2006, and was elected for one six-year term that will end in 2012 without the possibility of re-election. He is affiliated with the National Action Party (PAN), the most conservative of the three major Mexican political parties.

Calderón was elected in the 2006 presidential elections. The results were contested by opponent López Obrador, who started what he called a "pacific civil resistance". Calderon's victory was finally validated on September 5, 2006 by the Federal Electoral Tribunal.

Prior to the presidency, Calderón actively participated in PAN politics. He has served as National President of the Party, Federal Deputy, and Secretary of Energy in Vicente Fox's cabinet.
