Eulalio Gutiérrez was declared President of Mexico during the Convention of Aguascalientes.
His presidency was best with problems from the onset as the warring parties that had prevailed in removing Huerta did not agree on much else. Ultimately, he declared Carranza and Villa to be traitors to the revolution and removed himself to the United States. He returned in 1920, but later participated in a subsequent rebellion and again went to the US as an exile. He returned to Mexico again in 1935 and died in 1939 at age 58.
