Answer: Antonio López de Santa Anna

Antonio López de Santa Anna (1794-1876) joined the army during Mexico's War of Independence—the Spanish army, that is. Santa Anna eventually switched sides and over the following decades, he rose to prominence as a soldier and politician. Santa Anna would eventually be President of Mexico on no fewer than 11 occasions between 1833 and 1855. With a reputation for being both crooked and charismatic, the Mexican people loved him despite his legendary ineptitude on the field of battle. Santa Anna lost Texas to rebels in 1836, lost every major engagement in which he participated during the Mexican-American War (1846-1848) and in between, managed to lose a war to France in 1839. Still, Santa Anna was a dedicated Mexican who always answered the call when his people needed him—and sometimes when they didn't.
