Rodrigo Itocuih Madero Obispo (12 May 1971 - 9 March 2075), was the 5th president of Carinansia and the first to be from a party other than the PRC. Serving from 25 June 2041 to 24 June 2053, he was also the first Carinansian president to be a self-declared socialist. Elected on a promise of expanding Carinansia's borders further again, he annexed Kangsu in 2042, effectively doubling the land area of the country, and increasing the population by tens of millions of people.

After graduating from the Ipudorm Autonomous University with a degree in Sociology, he remained in this field until the age of 31, when he published his Union Socialist Manifesto which outlined his ideology and would serve as the basis of the Union Socialist Party's ideology, which he founded the following year. It remained a fringe third party for years, only gaining national prominence in 2029 when he was elected governor of Ipudorm as discontent with the ruling PRC was high. He passed liberalising wealth redistribution programs, becoming an outspoken advocate for Kangsuan annexation after the outbreak of the Kangsu Crisis.

After Xandinho Carrasco's impeachment, he fundraised extensively to finance a future presidential campaign, originally intended for 2045 but moved to 2041 following Tlazohdira Won's announcement that she would not be seeking re-election. He won with 53.2% of the popular vote, and immediately set to work preparing the country for a massive expansion. He passed the 2042 Kangsu Act, officially annexing the territory, and buying the current territory of the Central District from Ipudorm for $3.2 billion. He convinced the various state governors to ratify a constitutional amendment accepting Tadea as a new state to the Serenacy, with a new capital city now under construction in Lekeadia.

Throughout his tenure, he increased government spending and the government's role in the economy, which some view as being the catalyst for the end of the Carinansian economic miracle. Throughout his tenure though, standards of living only improved as he modernised infrastructure and increased disposable income despite higher taxes. In 2053 he announced he would not seek re-election, citing his old age as the reason for doing so.

After he left the presidency, he initially remained involved in public life, even being an official Advisor to the President from 2056 to 2058. After he suffered a stroke in 2059, he fully withdrew from public life and retired to his hometown of Plaimo, where he is said to have remained until his death in 2075. President Chaves announced a period of mourning and approved the construction of a presidential mausoleum despite their opposing political views. The province of Madero in Ipudorm was created in 2081, named so in his honor.

Early life and education

Academia

Madero Obispo's academic career started with his sociology undergraduate studies at the Ipudorm Autonomous University, where he excelled academically and showed a strong dedication to social justice. His scholarly endeavors continued with a Ph.D. in Sociology, which he completed with the title "Structural Inequality and Social Mobility: A Comparative Analysis of Urban and Rural Communities in Carinansia." His dissertation, which looked at the socioeconomic differences between Carinansia's rural and urban inhabitants, was well-known for its creative technique and perceptive conclusions. Madero Obispo's study demonstrated the significant influence of structural inequality on the results of social mobility by emphasizing the intersecting axes of privilege and disadvantage that determine people's prospects in life.

Through a number of ground-breaking studies, Madero Obispo built on the success of his dissertation to continue making important contributions to sociological science. One such study examined the socioeconomic effects of globalization on labor market dynamics and emphasized the need for collective action to oppose unfair labor practices and promote wages and working conditions, laying the basis for his Union Socialist Manifesto.

"Environmental Justice and the Politics of Pollution: A Case Study of Industrial Communities," another noteworthy research project, examined the ways in which socioeconomic inequality and environmental injustice interact in industrialized areas. The study conducted by Madero Obispo illuminated the unequal loads that marginalized groups bear and emphasized the significance of environmental justice movements in promoting fair distribution of environmental advantages and disadvantages. Following the publication of these studies in internationally-renowned sociology journals, he received tenure from the university.
