THE POWER

Chavez's disease showed a problem of power, it appears the main mobile of politics without makeup. A dynamic that persists, despite of the healing of the Commander, unleashes. Thus, the struggle for power escalated high levels of antagonism and they cannot be stopped.

In Venezuela, we experience the heightening of a battle that no longer contains –only- in the elections, it exceeds the established limits. Who better understands this new situation, will lead in the moment of the inevitable confrontation.

The problem of power is seen by the counter-revolution beyond the election, they build a national project that involves the rising to power at any cost. Gradually, they outline the ways, all of them are tributaries of the central attempt: to take power.

Thus, today their aim is to blur Chavez’s leadership: they try to confuse leader with administrator. When Commander delegates administrative functions, the summer widows of hyper-leadership and the “squalid”, celebrate because they think that it would mean the loss of the leadership that withstands Revolution.

With the same intention of damaging his image, they demand to the leader physical conditions, as if it was the Olympics, as if the dispute was a marathon. If so, the best leader would be Messi or Arango.

As this happens, as they put in the centre of the dispute the image of Chavez, they prepare what they call transition, which is actually a coup. The dispute for power does not despise any path, oligarchs do not respect laws or traditions, and their vocation of domination is above all things.

Revolutionaries must prepare to defend the conquest of Revolution against any eventuality. We cannot be naive to think that social antagonisms, sharpened every day, will be resolved with the elections; those are just a station on the road.

It is proven by history, that the revolutionary processes -that gets excited about the bourgeois laws, their methods, and think that with them begins and ends all politics- one day, always late, will discover that oligarchy, with a vision of wanting more power, defeats them through ways not considered by law.

Allende's Chile warns us, there the so-trumpeted “transition” showed in all its details. It is a lie that oligarchy prepares a peaceful transition in accordance with the laws; on the contrary, they prepare -with a mute- a "transition" like Pinochet’s. Let’s remember that they still do not recognize the CNE, or condemn assassination; every day they whisper to the military. That is their true spirit.

Revolution must prepare for its defence in any field. In 2012, it is needed to make the changes that definitely release us from the bourgeois logic, its values and legitimating forms. Revolution must build other legitimating forms, of certification, beyond the bourgeois elections

Without Chavez there is not Socialism, There is no Socialism without Chavez!
