Salinas's return. For some by surprise but for others in a setting quite clear, the case was former President Carlos Salinas de Gortari decided to break into the debate on the poet's protest march Javier Sicilia. And he did it to show solidarity with the protesters and advise the Government on how to negotiate with organizations of the movement together around Sicily.
Salinas is a politician chills, except when things have to do with Ernesto Zedillo, whom Salinas put in office and who imprisoned Raul Salinas. Recent attacks against media Salinas Zedillo by the devaluation of December 1994 took the stage for the description of Zedillo as director of Citigroup, the bank bought Banamex. Now Salinas took the protest march from Sicily to seek a new political space.
Salinas councils have to do with a fact and undeniable: The transformation of the movement of Sicily in a rebellion to protest the system, ie, against the political system, institutional, and substantive partnership with the EZLN and breakaway movements: The Atencos, the EMS and some other similar type organizations. Thus, the mobilization of Sicily could be considered as the second round of the EZLN and its proposed settlement of the old PRI regime.
Salinas is looking for a political space that has to do with the electoral trend in the polls that benefits the return of the PRI to the presidency of the republic. The last two books of the former president would give the logic of the PRI government program consistent with the evidence that will be virtually impossible to restore the old power structure of the PRI. Worse, some analysts consider the possibilities not only void PRI reconfiguration of corporatism, but do not see the conditions for a neo-corporatism.
In the private agenda of Salinas also located critical feelings about the statements of President Felipe Calderón against previous governments that allowed the rise of drug trafficking and drug cartels. Some sources advanced that the former president would release an assessment of the balance of his government in drug trafficking, but so far have been detained because he would urge a review of violence linked to drug trafficking gangs. Above all, the murder of Cardinal Juan Jesus Posadas Ocampo in May 1993 amid gunfire between the bands of the Arellano Felix and the "Chapo" Guzman.
However, Salinas is looking for opportunities to wash the face of his government. And even at the grassroots level appear to be as devastating criticism that once plagued the former President Lopez Portillo, however the former president is very sensitive to the dynamics of the criticism in the red circle called journalism.
intended Salinas is in its role as a stabilizing factor in the PRI policy, where there are always seeds of divisive groups that have caused electoral defeats. So far, Salinas is the only political figure capable to mediate between groups to avoid the fractures that allowed the presidential defeats in 2000 and 2006. However, and despite having much influence on him, Salinas could not contain the triumphalism of Mexican governor Enrique Peña Nieto, who operates the PRI as if he were the president of the republic in office.
However, Salinas has started to come out of the coordinates of interest of the electorate. Nearly twenty years of confined spaces are large enough to undermine the greatest strengths, as might be worn in the figures of Cuauhtemoc Cardenas and Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador himself. A Salinas damaged his Zedillo organized persecution but also the negative balance of 1994, which began as a political cycle in May 1993 with the assassination of Cardinal Posadas and ended with the devaluation of December 20, 1994.
Salinas will become the subject of Lopez Obrador's campaign and the media battle will begin in the State of Mexico, where the PRD are preparing a protest campaign against a candidate Eruviel Avila Peña Nieto and Salinas. In politics enough hints to influence the collective imagination. Therefore, and despite his desire to recover space, Salinas could be accumulating evidence that no strings of power and room for maneuver.
It may Salinas be seeing evidence that his political mediation could go on why today's politicians have different ways of acting. The PRI has initiated a number of years the return of ideological definitions, historical and programmatic Salinas took off with neoliberal reforms 1991-1993. And it also helps that the strands of neo-corporatism are still in Los Pinos with the current president of the republic.
Therefore, the political margins are lower Salinas and the PRI some consider that would help the party over whether the former president will stay away from the decisions of power, including power wires institutions of neo-corporatism. And the former president himself may also be noticed the terrible fact of political power in Mexico: the power is exercised by who does, not who had it. Hence
Salinas is experiencing firsthand what he suffered the powerful President Luis Echeverria when he left power: The political vacuum. Until now, the PRI still have not done bad sides to Salinas, but this does not mean that long for its return. The figure of the former president in the center of the campaigns would damage the electoral prospects of the tricolor.
However, Salinas is going to walk the tightrope until the PRI itself do to one side.
2 .- Subjects of the week:
- Governments Alliance. The governors who won their elections by coalitions antipriístas is inching toward a crisis of expectations. The staff were very high and now they can not jump. That's why the governors of Oaxaca and Puebla have begun to slide attacks on his predecessors. But society has clearly not sufficient to state but require specific actions or leave the demagoguery aside.
- PAN encarrerado. PAN hopefuls are already at a rapid pace in the campaigns for the presidential candidate. And although the list is seven, in the background counts is smaller: Ernesto Cordero and Josefina Vazquez Mota, the first sponsored by the President of the Republic and the second with a self-help and she is a woman who is well regarded in the public. Alonso seemed to have fallen back as a spare part Lujambio Lamb.
- DF: The real political struggle, Marcelo Ebrard Lopez Obrador will not be in the presidential nomination. At least fans think Tabasco groups. Ebrard's desperation led him to establish the conditions of the process, López Obrador said he did but continued its path of demonstrations. The surprise might be that Tabasco is the first presidential candidate of the PT and Convergence, which would negate the intention of competing Ebrard. But the real struggle between the two is occurring in the definition of the candidate of the PRD government of Mexico City. There will be who really has the power.
- Insecurity: As expected, the departure of Sicily was anticlimactic point of the protest against insecurity. Many organizations that accompanied Sicily are not willing to turn the movement into an opposition group pushing for an independent presidential candidate. The government is betting the fracture syndrome radical groups. However, the discovery of mass graves will be scandal for several weeks.
