It is time to rebuild Mexico. The current moral crisis, economic, environmental, and social policy marks the end of an era. This degradation has caused serious damage to the historical conquests of Mexico and threatens our viability as a nation.
The greed of the mafia in power has no limits: It concentrates wealth in few hands, in exchange for millions of Mexicans condemning to a life of poverty and exclusion unacceptable, canceling the future of youth and children. This oligarchy is considered the owner of Mexico and we have become one of the most unequal countries in the world. With ambition, has hijacked the institutions, run over constitutional guarantees, given the national assets to foreigners and devastated the environment.
The only way to end these injustices is a profound transformation of the country. That is why we call the Mexican people to defend their rights, to carry out a revolution of conscience, of historical significance, to rebuild the nation from its foundations, to realize freedom, goodwill, justice and democracy.
The rebirth of Mexico requires the participation of all free citizens working in the construction of the common good. We want a country to provide security and welfare of its people, who respect freedom and diversity, a nation of decent people, united and happy: women, men, youth, indigenous people, peasants, workers, professionals, businesspersons, students, children, elderly.
This country is changing. Social power is underway. We are millions who are committed to transformation. Our guide is the story of the exploits popular Hidalgo’s example by founding the independent nation of Morels who gave the invocation of popular sovereignty, the Juarez to defend the Republic and the secular state, that of Madera called for a revolution effective suffrage. Zapata flag resumed the land and freedom; we recover the spirit of justice of Villa and the commitment of the Flores Macon to end injustice and exploitation. General Lazar Cardenas, who defended the sovereignty and economic independence, inspires us.
We are calling the people of Mexico to unite will and collective efforts in a constitutional process: to create the civic organization that defends the rights of all and new public institutions in Mexico make a democratic, inclusive and sovereign.
It is time to act, to organize from below and from the left, to struggle peacefully. We hope to add to that majority that wants a change because we defend a reason based on the love of equality and appreciation for diversity.
The project of nation that we offer consultation is a starting point for national debate on the Mexico we dream and want to build. A broad and diverse group of intellectuals and specialists committed to democratic change prepared this document. We put for discussion to be enriched with the experiences, proposals, ideas and demands of all sectors. The Mexico that we should be built together. As of December 2010 will reflect the individual contributions, collective and discussion forums to be made, in March 2011 will be presented the results of national consultation.
