Intelectuais cobram candidatos no México

Sylvia Colombo

A campanha presidencial mexicana acaba de começar, com vistas à votação do próximo dia 1 de julho. O favorito para ganhar o pleito é o candidato Enrique Peña Nieto, do tradicional PRI (Partido Revolucionário Institucional), que esteve no poder por mais de 70 anos. Em segundo lugar está a candidata da situação, a ex-secretária da Educação Josefina Vásquez Mota (PAN). Em terceiro, tentando recuperar o prestígio perdido depois da derrota em 2006, o esquerdista Antonio Manuel López Obrador (PRD).

Mal começaram a campanha televisiva e os comícios, os candidatos já têm o primeiro desafio. Responder às perguntas de um grupo de quase 50 intelectuais e artistas lançadas nesta semana, sobre assuntos que consideram centrais.

Os pontos mais polêmicos do questionário são o que se referem à violência do narcotráfico e a privatização parcial de algumas estatais importantes. Com relação à violência, há muita inquietude no país por conta dos mais de 50 mil mortos causados pela guerra ao crime organizado iniciada pelo atual presidente, o conservador Felipe Calderón (PAN). Seus críticos dizem que as ações do Exército provocaram uma reação ainda mais negativa entre os delinquentes e não fez com que se diminuísse a quantidade de drogas que atravessa o país com destino aos EUA.

Nestes seis anos de governo Calderón, a atuação dos jornalistas sofreu grave assédio. O México já é o país latino-americano mais perigoso para o exercício da profissão. Há ameaças de morte, bombas colocadas em jornais e rádios, e até sequestro e morte de profissionais.

A continuidade dessa política é um grande desafio para os candidatos. Se resolvem dar um passo atrás, podem abrir espaço para que os chefões do tráfico, já com bastante influência em alguns Estados, impossibilitem o governo do próximo presidente. Se acentuam a guerra contra o crime organizado, podem causar ainda mais mortes.

O documento dos intelectuais é assinado por nomes como o escritor e ex-chanceler Jorge Castañeda, o ator Gael García Bernal (o Che Guevara de “Diários de Motocicleta”), a autora Ángeles Mastretta e o ex-reitor da UNAM, principal universidade do país, Juan Ramón de la Fuente.

For those of you who are acquainted with the educational shows that PBS puts out for both adults and children you will be pleased to know that there is an on the net website known as PBS children.

  4. I would also like to say that most of those that find themselves without having health insurance can be students, self-employed and those that are out of work. More than half of those uninsured are under the age of 35. They do not think they are in need of health insurance simply because they’re young plus healthy. Their own income is typically spent on housing, food, plus entertainment. A lot of people that do work either 100 % or part-time are not supplied insurance by way of their work so they head out without because of the rising price of health insurance in the us. Thanks for the suggestions you discuss through this blog.

  8. I have observed that car insurance providers know the autos which are susceptible to accidents as well as other risks. Additionally, these people know what kind of cars are inclined to higher risk along with the higher risk they may have the higher the premium charge. Understanding the simple basics with car insurance will assist you to choose the right types of insurance policy that could take care of the needs you have in case you get involved in an accident. Thank you for sharing the particular ideas on your blog.
