One Change.

Hi Everybody!
Today, i'm talking about of the one relevant change in the our politics...
The principal change that i believe that should be done in the chilean politics is the reform to the electoral system, The "Binominal" System.
This system was created in 1980's decade for the leader of "Movimiento Gremialista", Jaime Guzman, between others, on request of the Dictatorship. This system assure the exclusive monopoly of the power, expressed in the only representation for the two majority groups in number of votes in the seats of the two chambers of Congress for our country.
This mechanism excludes of the minoritary -but relevant- opinion and political groups for the legislative discussion, degraded in my opinion the quality of the chilean politic. For this reason, great part of the citzenship are not represented in the congress, sumated for a "territorial logic" of representation to the appointment of seats in some chamber, which generate that the candidates of this seats be negociated in the leadership's of the mayoritary groups/parties favored for this system.
