Its inclusion in the binomial would be a clear sign of relaxation aimed at the country's elites, but it does not answer a key question: if the policy of permanent conciliation followed by the governments of Lula da Silva and (to a lesser extent) Rousseff ended in a Whatsapp Mobile Number List jail sentence and an impeachment, respectively, why would the outcome be any different this time? The possible election of Alckmin as the vice-presidential candidate has already caused surprise in many militants of the pt , but nobody doubts that, if the ex-president really decides in this direction, he will have no difficulty in imposing it.
Following the debacles of 2016 and 2018, there was no honest internal debate within the party, much less self-criticism about the government experience. In Whatsapp Mobile Number List an interview in October 2021, the president of the pt , Gleisi Hoffmann, dismissed the idea: «A political party does not criticize itself. He makes a political assessment and Whatsapp Mobile Number List is no need to outsource. Does what needs to be done»19. The election of Lula da Silva's vice-presidential candidate is not a simple tactical question. If he is elected, Lula will start his new government on January 1, 2023, at the age of 77; it's hard to imagine him showing up again in 2026. And in the pt there are no natural heirs. The founding cadres of the party who are still alive are all out of the game.
Among the new generation, the left's best hopes lie with other parties, such as Guilherme Boulos of the Partido Socialismo y Libertad (psol , born out of a split from the pt ) and Manuela d'Ávila of the Partido Comunista do Brasil (pcdb). Fernando Haddad is relatively young (he is 58 years old) and quite conservative in economic matters, but his Whatsapp Mobile Number List political fate will depend on the outcome of his probable candidacy for governor or senator for São Paulo, the most prosperous and politically influential state in the country. If he is elected, he could be a strong presidential candidate. But he is a game of chess with too many early moves. It is hard to imagine a long-standing politician like Alckmin giving up the chance to try for the Presidency.
