The election campaigns are based more in search for votes through subsidiarity and benevolence, promising unrealistic things or speaking badly of his opponents so that they are badly with voters. The worst happens when these candidates win the elections and all the campaign promises that remain that; promises. The majority of Mexicans have constantly felt this disappointment, seeing these candidates who give us back once they come to power. This disappointment every day grows accompanied by a social unrest but at the same time with a grim air of conformism, then what can we do. Then, if the candidates who aspire to power only inspiring disappointment and increasingly feel that this change will never come, how we can get to Mexico for this situation where no leakage is not and we are satisfied with what we have. The answer is that we must form a true Mexican citizens able to see by our community and not wait for a politician to come and achieve that change. Famous change should be given in all aspects and begins from the way in which we act daily. If the politicians don’t want to see for the common good of society, it is necessary to us if we see for the common good and that’s where we must promote citizenship active.
Enough of attitudes and opinions which at times we say the citizens themselves about which cannot change people, that it is impossible all to see for others, that people only see for themselves and don’t care for anything else. It is essential that each see for others and this starts with civic education; since separate trash, save water, litter in its place, handle appropriately, respecting parking spaces for people with different abilities, not give bites, etc. but also require active respect for and compliance with the rules by others. This has been achieved once our representatives really us represent both in quantity and in ideology that society would be generating a new class of politicians, political citizens committed to their society and not the current political characterised by the ambition of power, urged votes but devoid of proposals. The change will not be immediate, it would take at least two generations to see reflected such attitude, but similarly we can guarantee our future generations a better development and equity.
It is then that if a political party promotes candidates as we have today, people would simply reject them naturally and repudiation. If we are better citizens, candidates, therefore, have to be better politicians and people, since a candidate as most of those who we have today may not with the demands of a people that has managed to change if same. Change must begin and we must promote it. There will be comments about that is difficult to remove all the people who are inside Mexican politics only to satisfy their own personal interests, but if we opt for change, future generations may enjoy the benefits of a civic democracy. Create a democracy of citizens and non-voters is the great challenge that we have and we must be aware that only we are responsible for that change.
