Éste es el hilo para comunicarte con el grupo de trabajo encargado del
PROYECTO ACTIVO "Gestionar las ELECCIONES EUROPEAS".

Hi,

I am an active member of several communities involved in (true)
democracy, mainly the one called "Les Gentils Virus" ("the kind
viruses", http://gentilsvirus.org/ ).

The "Kind Viruses" are those who believe that:
- We are not in a true democracy, because we can only elect masters
who decide everything for us
- Many problems in our society are the result of the political
impotence of citizens, and would be resolved long ago if the people
could really do something about it
- We absolutely need a real democracy to solve these problems
- We have to talk around to awaken the slumbering citizens in all of
us, so that we would be numerous to demand a true democracy

We try to give people the virus of democracy, hence the name "Kind Viruses".

We would like to establish a contact with your NGO, and to discuss of
possible actions or projects we could do together.

An example of project I would like to talk to you about is for the
European Elections.

We are starting lists in each region of France for the european
elections, where people on the lists have been picked at random among
a whole set of citizen volunteers. The "political programme" of these
lists consists in ONLY ONE THING: candidates promise that if they are
elected, for each law proposal which comes to the parliament (I guess
you know that only the Commission can make law proposals, not even
parliament members), they will cast a vote with an internet tool where
every citizen could vote, and apply exactly the output of this vote.
This is a way to bring direct democracy to the parliament with its
current rules.

We encourage you to talk about this topic with the members of your NGO
and to start the same initiative in your country!

For more information about our initiative, see the
http://democratiereelle.eu/ website and translate it using Google
translate.

Looking forward to hear from you
