The papal visit has political connotations
México. - It is difficult to recall a so dreamy presidential contest as the one which elapses in these days in Mexico. The speeches, the images, the dozen thousands of political advertising in the television and the radio are hardly perceived find a use for background noise in the vast absorbed society in its dilemmas of their daily life. The noise of the presidential election of 2006 has remained as a traumatic record in the perception of the contenders of the political dispute underway. In 1988 the elections were developed as a paraphrase of a civil battle, today seems a hearings contest to evaluate who says less in the principal media.

Perhaps the current legislators may have provoked such silence that for many Mexican is a rest but for other part of the world them imports the speech and the conclusion from the elections from our country. To Joe Bidden, vice-president of USA announces his visit to Mexico and opens a dialogue spectrum between the political sectors, candidates for Mexico’s president, and the powers factices are to the hunt than what says the government of USA and tries to discarding to the left candidacy, ignoring it and despising it. These avatars of the north of Mexico have arrived to consider the water’s high of the yams, since twelve years of governments of the right-side have let us stagnant economically, waterlogged in the misery and above all in a maelstrom of violence that threatens the Central America stability.

This visit has outlined a question in this electoral colloquy: Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO), a politician with drag between the people’s bulk, with clear and certain positions for many sectors of the Mexican people, a luxury candidate that it does not has commitments with the oligarchy. It does not antecedent has of shocks with the Colossus of the North, it is the first time that is recognized to him to the PRD as presidential candidate of the Mexican policy with force and opportunity to earn the presidential contest, but if we observe in retrospective does not need absolutely of the shoring. Six own work years guarantee to him the control of his alliances with the people, neither Cuauhtemoc Cardenas S.

In this political context we have the visit of the Vatican with the catholic figure of Benedict XVI, and you want or it does not have political connotations though deny it the same Vatican and the high Mexican catholic clergy. Would be naive to think that these scenically of the Virgin Maria intend to support the consensus in connection with the federal administration. There is who think that the nearness of the Church with Los Pinos’ residence has resulted in onerous invoices. The federal government must deal as an identical metaphor of the nation. The PRI has made what is impossible by be earned not so much the support of the clergy but its neutrality. First by means of Beatriz Paredes, who undertook a crusade in the country, so that the states do not enjoy the gender freedoms, and definitions of the body on those which have the inhabitants of the Mexico City, we are marginalized of the social progress in our country.

After through a modifications offer to the article 24 of the Constitution, that if are not accompanied of counterweights in other laws put seriously in danger to the lay state. This situation has been accompanied by serious injuries of the current federal government to convert to our Mexico into a religious country and humiliated to the Vatican. However in political is the pragmatism of the systems of drag of the public opinion, what seems be reality. In short the catholic church has today a power strongest than makes a decade, but perhaps less legitimacy to enter the political field. Seem a contradiction.

The ultra right- side of the PRD
In this string of neoliberal governments of the PAN - PRI, which we suffer from 1982 to 2000, Mexico has receded to the century XIX. We are thanked to the federal governments of Fox and Calderon since again we are a Spanish colony, and by first time in our history as nation are a protectorate American, we are a star most in The States’ flag. The party in the power has carried out a ferocious plunder and shattering to the country, by means of the mining companies that they have extracted more gold and silver than the Spanish entrepreneurs of the first Spanish colony(1535 - 1821). The gold that leaves of the country not lets us any economic benefit. The Mexican president it buys in the international market paying for each ounce thousand times more than what the Canadians consider the revenue of thousand hectares of the land that exploit and poison.

This country is so rich that it can be given the luxury of giving gold, to give silver, to give uranium, to give oil, we finance bankers upon covering year after year the interest of the Fobaproa and by orders of the World Bank we have forbidden to invest in our development to cover the interest of the interest of the external debt. In this line the senators of ultra right-side of the PRD, as of the PAN - PRI, arrived to the limit of the ignominy upon authorizing that Calderon increase of 8 thousand to more than 14 billion of annual dollars the amount of our "donatives" to the IMF. They are the same groups that they are by the abolition of a lay state and will kiss the ring of the Pope. The PRD is kidnapped by their "directing", tribes of ‘bejaranos’, and ‘chuchos’ they are fighting the power of the wreath. Such seems that the PRD is a lackey more than government of the world, with that of the globalization. (La Jornada, politica, p.p. 6-14, March 3, 2012).
