Citizenship should be won based on opportunities, not through backroom deals and nepotism. Which colleagues does he want to see in the states by 2030, and how much of the presidential succession will unravel if he faces rebellion from now on? The people of San Luis Potosí deserve a good candidate from Morena. And yet, it happens that the Greens are giving Morena the chance to free San Luis Potosí from a clan that seeks to establish a cacicazgo. The prelude to the 2027 elections has arrived early. It is better to fight for that principle than to resign to those who resist it imposing their will. 'The time for definitions has come,' the president has said. In that sense, how does Morena want the future to be? To resemble a nation where equal opportunities are real, or one where competition is simulated while a family divides the positions among themselves? Those who win in the 2027 elections will accompany the president for the remainder of her term and will go beyond her. It doesn't happen every day that those in the business called PVEM make a gift. In that dialectic, accepting the PVEM's blackmail would give points to the opposing side. How significant would it be to write in the future that before completing nine years in power, Morena caved to the extortion of arrivistes who, without even having supported the leader's presidential candidacy in 2018, already felt they were in a position to make a grab for power. Without imagining future chronicles, what message would Morena send if it is afraid to compete against PVEM? Did they ban tribes but not family cacicazgos? They swore to register an army of 10 million unconditional loyalists… they boast of the president's high popularity… they say the opposition is morally defeated… and are they going to turn a blind eye if PVEM says this or that state is mine? The best thing about Morena accepting the PVEM's gift and competing head-to-head in San Luis Potosí against its supposed ally would be that they would free the people of that state from a family group that intends to share power among themselves. It would be a great message for the citizens of that state and the country. There is a family in SLP that, when they called themselves PRD members, took over the municipalities, and now under the pretext that they are not members of Morena, sheltered under the green banner, they believe nepotism is an ornament. Faced that attempt, which the PVEM president formalized on Monday, Morena has the opportunity to show that obradorismo is more than a set of clichés, that principles are not just for decoration, and that ducks should not shoot at shotguns. The PVEM already feel like co-owners of San Luis Potosí. To no one's surprise, the greens have shown their true colors. The anti-nepotism discourse that President Claudia Sheinbaum has promoted would be given substance. Can't the 'Mexican humanism' party beat a party that has never held three governorships at the same time? Their thing is anything but selflessness. Are the members of Morena going to let themselves be dictated to by a family that seeks to perpetuate itself and by a party whose opportunism has time and again lowered the level of politics? The consolidation of the new regime depends on decisively returning to the principles, some say in Morena; no, it is still a time for pure, hard pragmatism, others maintain. They say they have 'highly competitive profiles,' and that if the purples know how to count, let them subtract one governorship. The context is known. They want to define the SLP candidacy.
