Marcelo goes ahead

The Secretary of Foreign Relations, Marcelo Ebrard, gave a sample of his twisted political fang by proposing that before the survey, that President López Obrador has been saying that he will be the faithful of the scale, that is, the one that will dictate who of the applicants will be the candidate of Morena a la grande, there is at least one debate, although it could be more, among the candidates for the candidacy for the presidency of the Republic in 2024, so that the possible respondents know what the applicants propose and know their purposes and contrast their ideas.

Undoubtedly, Ebrard, the one with the most political experience of the three —the president’s sister and two brothers— with his proposal tries to put a stop to the charge that is brewing inside Morena in favor of Claudia Sheinbaum. Likewise, he puts Andrés Manuel in a dilemma to define which side the iguana chews on. For now, the president a priori gave the green light to the idea of ​​his Foreign Secretary.

Knowing the response of the Palacio tenant, the Head of Government of Mexico City, expressed her agreement with Marcelo’s proposal. As for the Secretary of the Interior, Adán Augusto López, he did not even have time to ponder his position; On one of the mornings in which he was present, at the question of a reporter, the president answered for him. If he goes, he said. And now if I plead with the umpire.

In favor of his suggestion, Ebrard Casaubon said that the debates take place in all political parties without causing divisions. He gave, for example, Biden’s 11 debates to achieve the Democratic Party’s candidacy.

In Marcelo’s proposal it is contemplated that the possible extras for 2024 resign their positions within the government so that there is a true even floor. Without a doubt, the Chancellor knows that in this sense the one with the most exposure to the media and the most resources is Claudia Sheinbaum. I think it is still premature for a measure of this dimension, but without a doubt it is further proof of the political skill of the Secretary of Foreign Relations.

The official participated in the World Trade Center in a forum that bore the stinging name of “What’s next for Mexico: Continuity or Change”, which was attended by thousands of people —supporters— who welcomed him and said goodbye with the usual harangue of “president, President”. Ebrard emphasized that the presidential succession is not a matter of closeness with the current president, “it is what you propose and what you are capable of doing,” he told reporters. For this reason, he assured, he is working on his proposal.

From what Marcelo can see, he is not confident in the supposed pact that he and López Obrador made when the current Chancellor resigned from the candidacy of the left to leave the field free for AMLO on the condition that in the next one the Tabasco would support the candidacy by Ebrard Casaubon. But he knows that political pacts are made to be broken and he has observed a certain inclination of the president for the Head of Government.

In the aforementioned meeting, Marcelo expressed his desire to take part in the appointment process based on “respect for the law, not using public resources to promote himself and not forcing anyone to participate, that people decide what What does he want”. He also called on his supporters to defend and spread his proposals in the streets, on social networks and in any field.

He took the opportunity to protest his 300 representatives who will promote his image in the 300 constituencies of the country. Here a question arises: Will those 300 representatives do their work in the same way as the Sheinbaum barnacles, for free out of pure sympathy for both characters?
