The newspaper's political editor wrote saying that the Yemeni people will express their will and say the decisive word that determines the next president who will be obliged before the people to fulfill what he mentioned in his election platform, an he knows that democracy will not end in side the ballot box. It will continue with it and accompany it step by step. Whatever has come through democracy must be accomplished by democracy, means the platform, victory of the new president will not exempt him from competition of other platforms that did not succeed. The other platforms will continue in competition by converting into monitoring him, to cooperate with the positives and successes and observe the negatives and failures in preparation for another election round where they will be more scientific and accurate in their competing political and electoral address. Their address is to overcome mistakes of a previous electoral period and give room to the constitution and the law and civilized conduct.
All that we have mentioned is not a kind of dream or illusion. It is a fact on the ground and since we have chosen democracy no one is any longer capable of evading its responsibility and accountability. it is a national action destinies put on its shoulder the burden of establishment for the following and pressures of correcting what was previous above all we have to realize clearly that the most important and most dangerous of the stages of democracy is that of reaching correct results possessing a slid base imposed by opportunities of fairness, confirmed by conditions of accordance and supported by legitimacy of the constitution and the law.
