revocatorio, venezuela, president stinks

Venezuelan politicians, who are either under the banner of the MUD or not, have opted to set aside the recall referendum mechanism, in favor of concentrating their "resources" on the election of governors and mayors, despite the fact that these Will be held when and how the government dictates through its National Electoral Council (CNE).

That you all know. Now, what is not mentioned, is that in that decision it operates with more weight the withdrawal to something less traumatic and sacrificed but with more number of positions available to distribute among the standard bearers of the different political awnings that finally the CNE authorizes to exist.

They, not us, have decided that the recall can not be attempted. The fact that they acted uncoordinatedly, and put the poor and rickety excuse (but sufficient, given the non-existent institutionality) on a silver plate to the government, so as not to put into action the sovereign revocatory petition that had to be consulted, has escaped what we As a collective we can control at the level of the parties, in a clear evidence that the dictatorship of the few, already embraced without flushing by the government - and the spoils of the PSUV - also operates in its own way and waiting for its turn in the Power, in the battered and scattered Venezuelan opposition.

First, there is the precedent that the request for a referendum was made in the time provided, so that the state has - and must still - promote its realization, separating its result from any time span generated by technicalities. Then, even if the first thing is not fulfilled, the State can hardly dodge before the world the realization of a new call for consultative referendum, for this time yes, to decide whether or not Nicolás Maduro leaves the power.

Neither scenario is carried out, however, because no one (government and opposition) is interested in the substance of the execution of such a constitutional and republican mechanism, which in turn reinforces the already materialized notion of a de facto dictatorship , Operated by the government and in some way (to the lack of forceful and reasonable actions), by the same opposition.

The appearance of a third way (not committed or sold to the two existing sides, but separated legally and ethically by the same distance to both sides, but in close agreement of action with the main current in the Venezuelan society), becomes necessary Not merely as a prerequisite for triumph, but rather as a guarantee of social coordination and actual exercise of the republican social and fair concept in our country.

The recall referendum MUST BE MADE, regardless of whether the elections that are constitutionally defaulted are scheduled and carried out. We continue to have the need to pass on history to Nicolás Maduro, as the first president revoked, by negligence and traitor to the republican values ​​established in the constitution. We need to start to see the wheel walk; We need to get out of this nothing in which we live.
