Broken Capillaries On My Arm

What is real democracy now?

Through a friend and network have been hearing about what has been termed as a social movement. I search on Google and displays first a result which should address a website with that name "real democracy now." For reasons unknown I can not connect to the site. Looking at the English Wikipedia and there is already an entry with information and links. The radio
've heard different opinions of journalists and politicians. Then English television I have seen a story about the coordinator of United Left, Cayo Lara, members of this initiative in Manchester.
seems the biggest question that is emerging in many people is the opportunity or the moment in which we proceed to conduct rallies, demonstrations and camped a few days of local and regional elections. Is also saying that this is a move to the left of the imminent victory of the right. Also
being labeled too quickly to this "embryo" of motion-that with all due respect, as a leftist, anarchist, anti-system and other similar qualifiers.
In my opinion it is too premature to talk about these actions and these people. On the other hand I think it should not be so important and so negative that a group of people camped in a central location such as Puerta del Sol de Madrid where, as it seems, maintain respectful attitudes and behaviors. The rally of the PSOE's end of season, under the Plaza Mayor, with the prime minister at the head, has been rescheduled on another stage more distant.
disqualify without even knowing these people and their ideas does not seem not the best way of doing politics.
other hand, attentive and astonished at what is happening in the Arab world, now our turn to arbitrate, at least, forms of dialogue and serious attempts at understanding.
far I've read, what is required is neither strange nor as utopian or at least should not be. Yes it is, of course, complex and difficult but, as the Greeks said two thousand years ago, "is pretty difficult."
Some of the requests for "real democracy and" would require amending the legislation. In some cases, ask for something as important as the law is changed election that favors the most popular parties or the party representation is the equivalent to the number of votes or open lists ...
I am sure that the two major parties numerically speaking, the Popular Party and the English Socialist Workers Party are not even remotely accept these proposals, moreover, come from very old. Bipartisanship is very convenient for those about two-thirds of the electorate but, in practice, expelled from government institutions to one third, capturing more than a critique of power and funds.
