democracy and intolerance

Intolerance is the greatest enemy of democracy. So that it builds up it must rest on social prerequisites will not be free, and are not abundant in society and national politics.

infighting in the PRD intolerance has been manifested first in his regular position as a party and then in the internal conflict by directing it. A week ago, Senator Carlos Navarrete was assaulted by supporters of Mr. Andrés Manuel López Obrador. As we know, Navarrete has been detached from the pressures of former presidential candidate of the parliamentary faction in the Senate that coordinates.

Mr. Lopez's game in the PRD internal succession is far from corresponding to the codes of conduct of the democratic left. Their lack of orthodoxy to meet with the agreed rules of internal or external political game to his party is legendary. He despised the law when "justified" their residence in the Federal District candidates for prime minister. So did with the judiciary when a judge ordered him to reverse the illegal appropriation of land by particular government. Attacked and dismantled without regard to Public Government Information Institute Federal District, with the clear objective of preventing this body will oversee the spending of his administration and forced him to account. Something similar done before, by limiting the ability of the Federal District Electoral Institute to monitor adequately the elections in Mexico City in 2003. Also failed to stand up when it was exhibited to light the scandal involving his trusted political operator and financier Rene Bejarano Carlos Ahumada.

In his leadership as a candidate for President of the Republic avoided the debate with their peers in front of public opinion, and only accepted it in the end, it was too late and had fallen dramatically in voter preferences. However, he refused to accept the outcome of the elections and mounted an operation to undermine the credibility of electoral institutions and the results of the 2006 elections. In his hectic

as self-proclaimed "legitimate president" has attempted to scatter throughout the country their views, presented as absolute truths increasingly, only possible for those who ditch stands as sole and exclusive truth and the authenticity of public life . Great finisher of what is right and what should not be even thought.

His most recent update of this handbook has been his stance on energy reform. It has been argued that the very idea of \u200b\u200bcarrying out a reform in this area will be grounds for "violence" and "instability" policy. Anticipated as a prophet what is proposed as a politician. His subsequent conviction of aggression by their hosts Navarrete moved to wonder whether it is genuine or just strategic. Considering his performance, there is no doubt that the restraint and reasonableness have been fading convenience. To deny it is a masquerade, Lopez Obrador has promoted intolerance. His public record is in sight since he came to the fore of national politics. And his party, to a greater or lesser extent, is mounted on the train that leads AMLO against all axiological foundations of democracy.

This behavior has seriously damaged the political space left. The surveys reveal all and nearly all qualified opinions with the exception of que externan (en público) quienes decidieron acompañarlo.

El primer aspecto de este daño a la izquierda y a la democracia en México consiste en que la influyente personalidad pública de AMLO ha conseguido captar no pocas voluntades y crear un imaginario político en el que ha sido ya depositado el huevo de la serpiente. Su talante y lo que anima es contrario al debate, a la ilustración de las posiciones que se defienden, al razonamiento lúcido e informado, a la aceptación, en lo que cabe, de la razón del otro. En suma, es contrario al diálogo, que debe ser nota dominante en todo ambiente público democrático. En consecuencia, es una lección de falso civismo que en realidad promueve los values \u200b\u200bthat are contrary.

Thus, López Obrador López Obrador and undemocratic form and a block that can overwhelm and sink in the dark conservative ("left") to the rest of the PRD. The development of the modern world has shown that the left can advance and develop better assuming the values \u200b\u200bof democracy, because it is the force most capable of deepening them. Including the core, which is tolerance. Without tolerance there is no respect for the "rights of others, tolerance is not possible without peace or freedom without tolerance is diluted the ability to grow morally and disability facing the opponent's errors, base construction policy own. Use quotation marks because it is a value that AMLO Juarez Republic claims to represent.

In countries that has consolidated democracy better, the left has been more influential. I refer not only to the classic examples: the more developed countries which have achieved higher levels of well thanks to the presence of genuine leftist political organizations. I also refer to the countries of Africa, Latin America and Asia. What would India without the struggle of the Communist Party of Kerala? What would be today if Nelson Mandela of South Africa had not understood that the moral leadership of a people to justice begins the moral integrity of the recognition of others and of reality? Why do countries like Argentina, Brazil and Chile have been able to lower their rate of inequality?

None of these questions are answered without admitting that modern organizations and intelligent left have affected the state's power structure and content of government policy with the prospect of building long term, always reaffirming a commitment to democracy.

Today, this is something that López Obrador unfortunately lacks.

Aplastana 'The Mutts'

believed to emerge as winners, but were overtaken by the control strategy of patronage

win Beyond Encinas, was a disgraceful display of politics pursued by the left

is flatly wrong to assume that those in yesterday's election throughout the country, but especially in reservoirs yellow, the PRD was playing his future . In days gone voices often placed alternatives and Jesus Ortega Alejandro Encinas as polar opposites, the closest thing to paradise, in the first case, and hell, in the second.

And they are wrong, because while there are huge differences between the political culture of each other, The Mutts are heirs to a political practice that favors dialogue, negotiation and agreement, and lopiztas placed over any confrontation strategy - what is certain is that both Chuchos as Lopos are two sides of same coin: that of the left, away from their doctrine, it grew to the horns of the moon not because of their ideology and political practice efficiently, but by a successful popular frustration, after the climax begins to see its decline.

close to the time of this article, during the night began to flow information that would have imposed the strategy of López Obrador and Encinas, although during the day data were independent exit polls that gave the New Left candidate Jesus Ortega, a slight advantage over the dolphin's defeated presidential candidate, AMLO, although it was evident throughout the day in all states, municipalities and Federal District's boundaries, where the Chuchos had chances of winning, small attempts to break the election.

is no coincidence that the biggest red flags that saw the election of national leader of the PRD were produced in Iztapalapa and Ecatepec, and generally in the suburbs of Mexico City, where New Left has almost total control of the PRD, as well as the states of Oaxaca and Veracruz, where the allies of López Obrador the convergent Gabino Cue and Dante Delgado, mobilized their tribes to blow the election.

occurred in the eyes of everyone, black hand for Alejandro Encinas.

And apparently gave good result all attempts by the duo Obrador Encinas-election mess in good Castilian, though they did not have another name that electoral fraud attempt within the PRD itself. Basically what we saw was a competition where lopiztas strategies resorted to all sorts of trickery and cunning odd jobs before and during the election, while Chuchos designed a strategy to clear all the mess made by its opponents. And of course, did their thing. It is known, however, that approach would have failed the New Left.

To begin with, and yet, The Mutts will never disqualify a referee, let alone go to court institutional. Neither took a strident stand before the public evidence of cheating and irregularities deployed against him and, in general, never swallowed the hook to open the lower slit the annulment of the internal electoral process.

still the eve of the election on Saturday 15, Mr. Alejandro Encinas reported that he came in anonymously a thousand actual ballots, which presumably would be used to favor Chuchos.

However, the move was so crude that after a quick inquiry into the alleged irregularity was that the ballots thief was identified as a political operator Arturo Nunez, the referee of the contest, Tabasco imposed by AMLO , PRI until months or even legally qualified as a PRD. Neither is Chuchos fell in the provocation to abort, and even when documented theft of ballots and ballot boxes, mice crazy pregnant polls, ballots and plugs in the end, were beaten two members who coordinated the campaigns of Ortega and Zambrano.

But all indications are that the group of Encinas and López Obrador won the victory and avoided tripping over the same stone in July 2006. What do we mean? Easy

that the strategy Chuchos was based on two key variables. First, the lines have already stated above: in the design of antibodies to prevent it from being blown the election and prevent reached the end of the cancellation. And second, that a lot of money, which by the way, nobody knows where it came from, "New Left strategists gave shape to a pyramid structure to carry voters to the polls.

And that structure, it really is an invention of the most refined of the PRI on election-actually designed by the now retired from politics and devoted to journalism César Augusto Santiago, is only the careful design of a voters list, location, attention to their needs and satisfactions, and the conviction to the vote on Sunday leave the house, climb into a truck, a pesera, a taxi, get to the box and vote . That, of course, requires strategy and money, big money. And money was.

But apparently none of that worked. The Mutts believed to emerge as the winners, but were overtaken by another strategy, also PRI, control of patronage. And not referring to their ability to spread his doctrine, party discipline, the effectiveness of their leaders or elected representatives. No, simply that on three occasions, before they had won Chuchos to poor leadership of the PRD. Today I applied the same dose.

In the end, and beyond who wins Encinas, what we saw in a public way is a disgraceful display of politics that is able to deploy the Mexican left, which ever ceases to be for a parent to the old PRI, which has already forgotten the ideas, proposals, doctrine, and advances in the areas of power only from the trap and antibody. And that is left to defend many of the great men of ideas.

Left became right

The term "left" comes from the beginnings of the French Revo-lution, when the king imposed a form of parliament, the States General in 1789. Members of the nobility sat to the right of the president and defending the special courts, the tradition and monarchy. Members of the seats on the left called for the disappearance of the monopoly held by the government in certain areas of the economy end of the charters by which the nobility could not be prosecuted for acts against a poor, education for the masses science-based, secular state, and in general, everything that today makes up a democratic regime.

Why did that happen? Because the new productive forces unleashed by science transformed into technology (the Industrial Revolution) were breaking the straitjacket of the old statist legislation, bans full of new businesses. The process was analyzed by Marx in abundance. In short, the "third state", with seats to the left, representing the emerging economic forces, oppressed by legal restrictions to trade and investment. It was inspired by the Enlightenment: that generous intellectual who had written the first encyclopedia, summary of scientific knowledge. In the States General, the sitting to the left wing was struggling for freedom of trade, investment, association, expression, religion, and equality of citizens before the law and social services for the homeless. In this attitude is inspired Washington, Hidalgo and Bolivar to propose independence from Europe and democratic republics monarchies rather than to rule the new American countries.



The Mexican left came to power On our left forgotten ethics: a government that called itself the left, led by López Obrador in Mexico City, did everything, absolutely everything against what we were on the left: we demanded public works concession for open bidding and competition, with transparent prices and costs: López Obrador delivered his magnum opus, the second floor, the companies he decided to change and political support (they were the "good entrepreneurs" who were marching when he asked, because he gave and took away contracts at will). Then, to prevent the application of the Law on Transparency in costs by billions, he managed to René Bejarano, head of the Legislature, state secrets do those numbers, those books, up to ten years. Why, why hide? We only know that thousands of millions of dollars, but payments will be on the safe López for ten years.

And what did Gustavo Ponce, Secretary of Finance of López Obrador, playing in Las Vegas every three weeks? He is in prison because he stopped the PGR, not the capital police. He could not miss his office without authorization from the head, López Obrador. What was Ponce to Las Vegas? What was the official entrusted with? Lopez will be what, less silly. His secretary of finance made him a job. Ponce Encinas, recognizing him, and fled: "Everything I did with Andrew's knowledge." The whistle to escape Lopez had given him urgent news conference. The federal government has to Ponce in federal prison. But the PAN demonstrates every day that is green to exercise power and is "fully Palace." Ponce case management has been nil. Instead, there are people who still claims that there was fraud but no one has managed to explain, nor López, how committed a fraud-proof system. Was the coup.

Whoever said "indestructible" came to the baseness to accuse their representatives have been sold box, could not give a single name or the amount for which sold. And yet, managed to install the fraud in the collective belief of millions. Now do the same: it requires transparency in contracts for 40 million the same character that denies us transparency in the billions. Requires who never gave them accounts for the contributions of pirate taxis, street vendors, by Pancho Villa who served the PRI and the PRD now because they serve the highest bidder.

A Mouriño not sink Lopez's complaint, it plunges the eternal suspicion of Mexicans who can not believe that have a principle of democracy, that his enemies are the unions of electricians and oil, not investors in Cuba explore and exploit oil fields in China and produce electricity without thereby Cuba and China are disappearing.

The Mexican left charters fought 150 years ago today reinforces, and today is against freedom of investment and trade: who made the prosperity of the developed world. What they call "left" is what Juárez Gómez Farías called "reaction." We are in the hands of a reaction brash and cocky.

of involution that denies Darwin to Stockholm syndrome
For
where you want to see, what we experience today the second largest Mexican electoral politics, the Democratic Revolution Party (PRD), is a tragedy that should plunging into mourning Mexican liberals and Democrats, to all those in the trenches of the old left and the center gave progressive soul, mind and heart for the Mexican political geometry left open and thus break the bipartisanship of the PRI and PAN.

As everyone knows, after the scandalous electoral fraud orchestrated almost 20 years ago the government of Miguel de la Madrid and a group of PRI that did everything to prevent the president came to power Cuauhtémoc Cárdenas, candidate of the then National Democratic Front ( NDF)-between the fraudsters were the Manuel, Camacho and Bartlett, today two of the men closest to Andrés Manuel López Obrador, it seemed that finally the Mexican left had taken the right course.

words, due to electoral fraud in the 1988, the NDF became a solid game that began with the founding slogan "support the democratic transition", and so his name Democratic Revolution Party "and" to oust the PRI from Los Pinos. " Thus, in the middle of a crossroads on the one hand encouraging omens proposed, and the other founders faced an authoritarian and criminal prosecution initiated by the government of Carlos Salinas, whose operators were precisely the manuel and characters such as Arturo Núñez in 1989 was born the PRD, the party whiteYellow, the Aztec sun and today, to wear regrettable, is decried as the party only yellow.

Well, that party who was born 19 years ago with the slogan "support the democratic revolution" and "to oust the PRI from Los Pinos, today is a caricature of its founding principles and not only returned to the most ancient and undemocratic practices that characterized the PRI, but in processes such as we will see throughout the day, seems to love who was abducted from their colonizers, the ideologues of the old PRI, the party they said fight.

In short, the PRD is now not only denies the basic concepts of democratic development, and to say nothing of the democratic revolution, "but lives regression in terms of the evolution of species would be to renege on Charles Darwin, while in emotional terms, is a victim of Stockholm Syndrome is not the phenomenon that leads to the infatuation of the abductor. And yes, in this case, the PRD became enamored with the PRI, its culture and practices. And in this logic, the PRD as the party was colonized, kidnapped by the worst of men and the practices of the PRI.

Since 2000 we warned in this space that dangerous regression and colonization unstoppable, we said that this vortex is committing a "political parricide" in which the favorite son, Andrew Manuel López Obrador, politically assassinate his father, Cuauhtemoc Cardenas, to take power. We said that the new PRD and its new leadership was not only a regression to the older coarse PRI, or perhaps the fourth stage of the PRI and the PRD were obvious symptoms of a condition known as Stockholm syndrome. All preferred to unleash the "piñata of power"-because in a naive way they thought they had power in the bag, while the response to critics was the insult, disqualification, threats and even defamation.

faith traps But

all those years, the stubborn reality set. The intrigue of this supposedly left bowed to the weight and force of a reality in which many believed, but never found a real foothold and sustainable "because the stage was built only to gain power and never to promote a project ideological and partisan, "and ultimately ended up shaping a tidal wave of disappointment, dissatisfaction and disappointment.

The millions who believed that collective delusion that was dressed in the garb of the left and the PRD, which presented as a savior of the country to its presidential candidate Lopez Obrador and his alternative government, eventually becoming unstoppable social mass, not their ability to organize, protest and less by the rapid reaction of their antibodies, but by his inexhaustible reserves of hatred, resentment and frustration against any and all who were not with Mr. legitimate or in favor of their occurrences.

So, not being with the legitimate dissent of his delusions, questioning its absurdities, was and is synonymous with treason. This deformation-true democratic regression to Stalinist and fascist attitudes "expressed not only against legitimate critics, against their natural enemies, but against their own opponents within the PRD. Thus, anyone who does not shared ideas, nonsense and delusions of legítmo was a traitor who should be burned green wood, whether or not militant, leader of the PRD and even aspiring to a position of representation.

why we must insist on the question: is it really sensible that anyone can argue that it is now the PRD can be identified as a leftist? Yes, there are. And among those who argue that the PRD is the best representation of the left that Mexico has had located some of the most renowned Mexican intellectuals, those who in times of questioning the hegemony of the PRI PRI, but coincidentally were paid from the coffers of governments PRI; those who patented and legitimized the offensive nickname of "stick with the left and the right to charge."

No matter who wins

At least until the evening of today, few know the results of the election on Sunday, although at least three polling firms conducted surveys on the fight for the presidency PRD. But in fact, not necessary that you know if the majority of votes will take Jesus Ortega and Alejandro Encinas. And is that what is clear is that neither can tell who is the party president in Mexico is to the left.

And today no one can deny the obvious. Well, almost anyone except the fans and lovers forever. And it is evident that with everything and yet, the PRD insists on walking in the opposite direction to the basics of a political force that is claimed to left. On other occasions we asked here if anyone seriously believes that everything we've seen the PRD in everyday political practice and its special events, such as the renewal of its national leadership, some people may argue that the yellows are a leftist party.

And we must confess that the reactions to that question have left us dumbfounded. Yes, there are those who defend and justify to Mr. René Bejarano and Gerardo Fernandez Noronha, who say that Manuel Camacho, Manuel Bartlett, Marcelo Ebrard, are something like heroes of the left, and even those who say that the naive teacher Bernardo Batiz and electoral offenders as Arturo Núñez and José Guadarrama, are examples of doctrinal consistency and partisan.

And if that is a trend that dominates intramural PRD, we can understand the reasons why that party is the worst of its crisis of identity. And, in fact, by now no matter who the two candidates could be the winner. The important thing is that the two sides does not seek recovery of the party, do not try to rescue the founding ideology and objectives that gave life to that political force, especially a left-wing concept. What matters is power. And is that whoever wins the election today, you can take control of the party line for the elections of 2009 and 2012. And that's no small thing.


traps
And of course there will be many who refuse to acknowledge that the yellows have become the worst of the PRI. But we might ask, to dispel doubts: Does anyone remember an internal election of any registered political parties, which have been dirtier, more challenged, more illegal? What face political quality, morality or ethics, Lords of the PRD, as the rightful leaders can challenge the federal elections? If we review the internal processes of the PRI, PAN or any other of the registered political forces, we will see any conducts its internal processes such filth, as we have seen in the PRD.

That what traps. Well, the list is endless. Some pearls. Everyone knows that funded from somewhere, across the country appeared a letter signed by AMLO, which asks the million members to vote for Encinas yellow. "Quen pump? This is illegal. Sure. But guess what? Yes, that AMLO won as the arbiter of election Mr. Arturo Nunez. "Who is? Well, nothing more and nothing less than the man of Manlio Fabio Beltrones, in the government of Carlos Salinas, to pursue the PRD. What? Chulada of consistency. Perhaps

PRD know where did the money for all this campaign? Many do not know, but as many as they sense. Who are the main political support in Mexico City, Alejandro Encinas? Yes, Mr. René Bejarano, Marti Batres and, of course, Mrs. Alejandra Barrales, the last candidate to lead the capital's PRD. Well, if we review those names, you know where to get the money. Or not? But

everything is in the City. Come to another entity, for example, Zacatecas, where the governor Amalia García, along with her daughter's, Sen. Claudia Corichi, are in the eye of the hurricane. Why? It turns out that public money for Alejandro Encinas out with both hands via the local DIF, which is in the hands of "the daughter uncomfortable." Yes, she has more than two positions: Senator, President of DIF, the daughter of the governor and frontrunner to state government. Another girl of democratic example in the style of the Mexican left.

Well, what we saw yesterday, when the candidate Alejandro Encinas reported that he came in anonymously to his tent a thousand ballots for the election today. And indeed, it was real ballots, according to the officials, came illegally. What is it? As a ploy intended to advance what we all know, but do not want to say in public. That

as in the federal election, Mr legitimate partners do not recognize the outcome of the election, of course, if they lose, and everything seems to happen, "and declared that there was fraud. And that statement was made after ballots yesterday showed Encinas. Those ballots will be proof of fraud, according to the strategy and its Encinas Chief Lopez Obrador. That is, a legitimate candidate and his associates, "are putting the bandage before the court." And that will be his alibi.

Fraud, false government

And if tonight or no later than Monday morning, polls and official results give victory to the candidate Jesus Ortega, then Mr. Alejandro Encinas and its partners declare that there was fraud, that Jesus Ortega's presidency is illegitimate, the more Chucho is illegitimate, and is likely to propose a sit-in protest, while one could claim head of Arturo Núñez, by then considered the modern Luis Carlos Ugalde.

We will see in the PRD primary election of a decal of what we saw in July 2006, where everything was fine until Mr. legitimate was defeated. Then came the ghosts of the anti-democracy of the PRD. All is well if I win, but everything is very bad if they lose. And if I win, we live in the realm of democracy, if I miss living in hell, and all are the worst, the institutions, the party itself will go to hell. And from what happened yesterday, it is likely that the winner was Jesus Ortega. Faced with this hypothesis, "AMLO recognize their defeat? That's the big question. Time.
