In politics with the electoral left
Mexico. - When we finishing the project ' the programmatic proposal 2012 ' of a 'Mexico for all of them', the chief of government of the D. F. assured that this fact “it will have an enormous repercussion in the whole country. It is the unit of the Mexican lefts-side, with all the moral authority and politics that it has the engineer Cuauhtemoc Cardenas ". They qualify the meeting among Cuauhtemoc Cardenas Solorzano (CCS), and Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO), of “historical, we full us with optimism". Marcelo Ebrard Casaubon also assures (MEC) that “Those that we want a progressive change in Mexico”.

“This will motivate many (people) to follow this project and to support the cause that now AMLO registers", presidential candidate of the coalition Progressive Movement. In the same tone Miguel Angel Mancera, applicant was pronounced to happen in the position to MEC. "It is a very important meeting and a historical fact that it fills us to all of pleasure, and that it also shows how we are working in the same line and in the same way all of them."

One works in the same sense of the political union
Cardenas (CCS), it introduced yesterday to the presidential candidate of the left-side party, AMLO, their programmatic proposal 'A Mexico for all of them'. The meeting and the explicit adhesion of Cardenas (CCS) to the presidential campaign of AMLO they mark, it is necessary to wait the end of a long with out of meetings history among the national politics’ figures and of hates among their respective partisans that have caused a damage in with out of hiding to the progressive, democratic and popular causes of the country.

Just as he said last Monday, March 6th the three times presidential candidate of the lefts-side, the meeting “allowed to dissipate doubts and bad understanding” in the face of the necessity of “adding volunteers to achieve the rebirth of Mexico". How we will remember, the distancing between both leaders became patent from ends of 2005, in the course of the selection process of the applicant PRD-man to the Presidency of the Republic, and it was deepened after the outburst of the campaign of AMLO who obtained the candidacy. The ill will of the followers of the Tabasco-man was increased then against the Michoacan-man that this recognized Felipe Calderon Hinojosa refuted electoral victory in the elections of 2006.

Political support of the icon of the PRD
In this whole time both characters have avoided the verbal virulence among them, they have differed in a regular way in diverse topics, so much in those referred when happening national as in those related with the always conflicting internal life of the party to which they belong. Such discrepancies were magnified and they found paths resonance’s boxes in the near environments to the one and to the other one, and it didn't only harm gravely the image of Cardenas (CCS) in the progressive environments, but it subtracted significant supports to AMLO in their zeal to build a structured movement of social resistance and organized. However it is clear that the bottom coincidences among them have been and they continue being much more significant that their differences.

At the event of last Tuesday 7 of February, Cardenas (CCS), he gave reading to a document that, being different, it harmonizes, in their biggest part, with the new alternative project of nation elaborated by the movement that follows AMLO. For their importance it is between both are coincidence points political. Both platforms emphasize the necessity to reorient the effective economic politics in favor of the population and of re-express the national priorities to overcome the disastrous circumstance for which Mexico crosses. To these heights of the game, it is clear that neither National Action (PAN) neither the Institutional Revolutionary (PRI) they represent an alternative to the prevailing neoliberalism, to the state dismantlement with to denationalizes approaches, to the mistaken strategy of public security and of combat to the delinquency.

The engineer's moral authority is what it missed this campaign
The petition falls heavy and some take out him the turn. " Already for what reason?", Federico Arreola suggest in an extreme, about the meeting among these two characters whose encounter takes six years and whose essence summarizes Cardenas (CCS) in a sentence: "We have candidate to the presidency in AMLO". The declaration was haggled us for six years, but it arrives. "It is the moment", Ricardo Monreal estimates (RM), general coordinator of the campaign of AMLO, in the peak of his fame. "All campaign needs a symbol and we have in Cardenas the most important symbol in the democratic fight in Mexico". Monreal remembers (RM) that in 2006, it coordinated the campaign in Michoacan and that never in eight months, it could get that Cardenas accepted to participate in the presidential candidate's act. The leaders of the three parties of the Progressive Movement and dozens of militant standing up they complete the square.

In the present moment, the center of the political dispute resides in the alternative among continuing government's program that, in the essential thing, it has come being applied in open form and clearly this way from 1988, or to replace it for an alternative national project. In this circumstance, the meeting of the two left-side politicians and the back of Cardenas (CCS) to the candidacy of AMLO they contribute to consolidate government's proposal with bottom transformations and to clarify the options from the face citizenship to the presidential elections of this year, and it constitutes, in that measure, a positive fact for the citizenship.
