Podemos is the outrage of ordinary people that has become a political party. It´s been created under the most democratic process ever lived in this country or in any other one. People have elected them via internet. People have had assambleys in the neighbourhoods, in internet, at different venues... This is hope, and also is the nightmare for bipartidism and the mafia that support them.

That party comes from one individual who expects others join him. I don´t see much future to that.
The strengh of Podemos is that it started without leaders, it wasn´t even a political party, that has come later. Everything started with people in the streets.
It´s a grassroot movement, a fully democratic one.
In Britain there are quite a few and very active. I wish they got together and made a political party.

Grass roots need regular watering and tender loving care. I hope Podemos gets both.
Does Podemos mean "We can?"

What Podemos is getting now is tons of manure. But it is helping despite the real intention of those who throw it.
