Pero el fen\u00f3meno Mockus puede ser el equivalente criollo del fen\u00f3meno Obama. Y con la oportuna uni\u00f3n con Fajardo, tiene chance de acabar como en Estados Unidos: con el reemplazo de un gobierno polarizador y venial por otro moderado y transparente.<\/p>\n<p>La campa\u00f1a de Mockus es la del t\u00edpico \u201coutsider\u201d. As\u00ed fue la de Obama hace un par de a\u00f1os, cuando nadie apostaba un d\u00f3lar a que ganaba la nominaci\u00f3n dem\u00f3crata porque enfrentaba a Hillary Clinton, la candidata de la maquinaria, la que ven\u00eda haciendo carrera toda su vida para llegar a la presidencia.<\/p>\n<p>La Hillary de Mockus se llama Noem\u00ed. Con Santos en punta pero incapaz de ganar en primera vuelta, lo interesante es ver si el 30 de mayo ganan los verdes o los azules. Es la cl\u00e1sica pelea de los independientes contra la maquinaria. De ah\u00ed que los verdes, como los voluntarios de la campa\u00f1a de Obama en su momento, sean los m\u00e1s activos en Facebook y Twitter.<\/p>\n<p>Entre tanto, Noem\u00ed recibe gustosa las adhesiones de los caciques pol\u00edticos y de los mismos sectores del empresariado rural que se beneficiaron de la gesti\u00f3n de Andr\u00e9s Felipe Arias. Ya tiene el apoyo de los palmicultores y, como compa\u00f1ero de f\u00f3rmula, a un l\u00edder de los agroindustriales y los mineros. Por eso suena cada vez m\u00e1s como Arias (aunque litigue contra \u00e9l) y, por supuesto, a Juan Manuel Santos. Por eso tambi\u00e9n su propuesta m\u00e1s \u201coriginal\u201d es revivir el fuero penal militar que dejar\u00eda sin castigo los \u201cfalsos positivos\u201d del ministerio de Santos.<\/p>\n<p>Pero lo importante es ver si es posible un movimiento pol\u00edtico independiente que produzca una segunda vuelta entre Mockus-Fajardo y Santos-Angelino, que tendr\u00eda un claro paralelo con la disputa Obama-McCain. La diferencia, claro, es que los verdes se enfrentan a un gobierno popular. Por eso, producir una mockusman\u00eda requiere a\u00fan m\u00e1s tino y suerte que la obaman\u00eda. Para eso, tres lecciones de \u00e9sta pueden ser \u00fatiles.<\/p>\n<p>Primero, hay que hablar de frente sobre los temas dif\u00edciles. Si Obama le hubiera sacado el cuerpo al tema del terrorismo, la salud o el racismo, hoy no ser\u00eda presidente. Mockus y Fajardo hablan claro sobre la seguridad y no titubean en su condena a las Farc y los \u2018paras\u2019, pero tienen que hablar igual de duro y diferenciarse del uribismo en otros temas clave, como la salud, la educaci\u00f3n, el desplazamiento o la pol\u00edtica de tierras. Ya Mockus avanz\u00f3 con la idea de la \u201clegalidad democr\u00e1tica\u201d, pero hace falta aterrizarla y complementarla.<\/p>\n<p>Segundo, el crecimiento de los verdes depende de sacar a votar a los que no participan en la pol\u00edtica por fastidio a las maquinarias. Los j\u00f3venes urbanos que difunden el mensaje por redes virtuales; las minor\u00edas (sexuales, \u00e9tnicas, etc.) que lo hacen tambi\u00e9n por redes reales; y los muchos indiferentes que quisieran algo distinto.<\/p>\n<p>Tercero, para movilizar ese p\u00fablico disperso, la campa\u00f1a de Mockus tendr\u00eda que ser mucho m\u00e1s r\u00e1pida y eficiente. Si Obama hubiera sometido todo a deliberaci\u00f3n acad\u00e9mica antes de reaccionar, no habr\u00eda tenido ning\u00fan chance frente a la estrategia publicitaria de sus rivales y el poder de los medios que los favorec\u00edan. En lugar de ello, hizo una campa\u00f1a profesional, disciplinada y audaz, que entusiasm\u00f3 a miles de voluntarios, facilit\u00f3 las peque\u00f1as donaciones por internet y enviaba a diario un bolet\u00edn de noticias y propuestas a miles de correos electr\u00f3nicos.<\/p>\n<p>Una victoria de los verdes ser\u00eda una haza\u00f1a del voto de opini\u00f3n contra el clientelismo. Pero de pronto la Virgen que tanto invoca Noem\u00ed San\u00edn por estos d\u00edas le hace el milagrito a la democracia colombiana.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At first glance, they couldn&#8217;t be more different: Mockus&#8217; arrhythmic paleness seems the antithesis of the charismatic cadence of the African American.
