The Pastrana family is part of the Colombian aristocracy, with a strong legacy in journalism and political leadership in South America. Both Misael Pastrana Borrero[1] and his son Andrés Pastrana Arango[2] held the presidency of Colombia, beyond these two administrations, the family has been influential in national media, diplomacy, conservative political networks, and public life throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Their actual prominence has positioned the Pastranas as one of Colombia’s most recognized modern political dynasties in Colombia. [3][4][5][6]
