María Corina's problem is not Delcy
María Corina Machado's return to Venezuela raises the question of whether popular support alone is enough to gain power. Historical examples show that effective leadership requires organization, strategy, and boldness. Figures like Charles de Gaulle and Lenin illustrate that audacious leaders do not merely claim aspirations but actively seek to transform circumstances. Machado's popular backing is significant but does not automatically translate into institutional control or negotiation power. Her return could have been a chance to change the political landscape, yet if it is framed as a result of negotiations led by others, she risks being sidelined. To leverage her support, Machado needs to propose bold initiatives and mobilize her followers around clear objectives. Ultimately, audacity involves recognizing opportunities and acting decisively before they disappear, as history rarely offers second chances.
