Fico Gutierrez and the risk of coming to recognize himself as "Uribe's candidate"
Since the election on Sunday night Federico Fico Gutierrez, the Colombian presidential candidate has been the most powerful. This isn't the first time his name has appeared on the electoral ballot. In fact, he was the councilor and mayor of Medellin. This was his first national vote. The Team for Colombia coalition won more than two million votes. They believe he could be a candidate for the conservative movements. Fico (Medellin 47 years old) or as he's known, is from last night and right now is the primary opposition to Gustavo Petro, who with the Historic Pact movement was one of the winners of the day of elections that determined who would become the representatives of the three major political forces.

The presidential campaign just began and the future of the former mayor of Medellin will hinge on the alliances that he forms and the talks he gets into. He will need to unify the right and also win over the middle electorate that was weak and devoid of a leader who was strong on Sunday. He'll have to maintain his distance from the previous president Alvaro Urbine, which is not something he's done previously. Today, for the first time in 20 years, open support for uribism is now possible rather than subtract. "Federico Gutierrez faces a dilemma. He has to form an alliance, on Uribe's behalf, with the Democratic Center. However, the challenge is convincing Uribe as well as the center which is the one to determine its course," Yann basset, analyst at the University of Rosario.

As it moves towards an alliance with the CD in the region where uribism is a major issue on Monday, Fico has already achieved its first conquest. Oscar Ivan Zuluaga the former presidential candidate, decided to retire, acknowledged his few options of competing against him, and offered his support. We will now check to see if the Uribismo group, which was left without a representative until Monday, offers its support. Uribe should be open to his support and attempt to persuade his electorate with the old questions of Colombian right. This will not prove difficult. His speech about "security" and "order", "opportunities", and "love the fatherland” already demonstrated that he adds voters. He confirmed this with the electoral consult, just as it was done in the past at Antioquia's mayor office. He claimed, "The bandits were either dead or in prison," while he was traveling to Arauca an area that is particularly prone to violence. Fico is aware of the Colombian right's preferences, but that will not suffice for him.

Basset says that we are not in a time when the fear of a left worked well. "This time the people don't have the fear." Basset says Fico may not be able to receive Uribe's blessing due to the fact that Alvaro Uribe isn't the absolute leader the country has had since 2002 at the time Uribe was elected president. Although this does not mean that Uribismo's votes Uribismo even if they are below the table is not important to Gutierrez, as happened this Sunday, or in his first attempt to get into the office of the mayor of Medellin in the past, when Uribe supported him even over the candidate from his party. https://www.asiunical.org/federico-gutierrez-is-the-winner-and-is-a-candidate-for-the-team-for-colombia-2/ is also responsible for this win within the coalition. https://www.martinbraunusa.com/fico-gutierrez-continues-his-victory-over-voters-he-has-stepped-up-his-campaign-in-boyaca-and-also-paid-a-visit-to-the-virgin-de-chiquinquira/ warns that now his negotiation skills are likely be limited. "To persuade the right to not spend everything on the alliance, will be his test." Andres Méjia Vergnaud comments on the relationship between the former Fico president and Fico. He says that Federico Gutierrez wants Uribismo votes but not Uribe photos because it isn't the right thing for him to be his own candidate.

Gustavo Petro is left-leaning, however, Gustavo Petro is right-leaning. However, Fico - if he is able to negotiate and convince Gustavo Petro to support him. Rodolfo Hernandez remains in the race despite having launched his campaign independently. Gutierrez should include the achievements of former Bucaramanga mayor Bucaramanga and billionaire builder Rodolfo Hernandez if he will fight against petrismo.

Gutierrez has a lot to talk about before even thinking about names for his presidential strategy, but what he already has is the support of the other candidates competing for the top spot in the Team for Colombia coalition. It's not a small amount. He is joined by two ex-mayors, Enrique Penalosa of Bogota and Alex Char of Barranquilla; the leader of the Conservative party David Barguil and Aydee Zarazo who is a Christian leader of the party, who vote judiciously according to the instructions from the lectern at his church.

The Conservative Party has been strengthened by receiving the biggest support from right-wing groups with over two million votes. Furthermore the U Party has shown sympathy towards the Conservative Party. They also received an impressive election, with just over 1 million votes, in the legislative. Oscar Ivan Zuluaga supported Fico and didn't take until after the results of Sunday's election to accept his defeat in the face of a possible conflict with votes from the right. This gives Fico an additional push into a conservative segment, while keeping him further from the middle. According to Alvaro Uribe, former president, Fico will have to decide if he is willing to take a risk at the center in order to enjoy the privilege of being the most blessed by Uribe.
