"التغيير والاصلاح" تقدم باقتراح تعديل الدستور لانتخاب رئيس "مباشرة من الشعب"
Read this story in Englishتقدم تكتل "التغيير والاصلاح" امام مجلس النواب باقتراح تعديل دستوري لانتخاب رئيس الجمهورية من الشعب مباشرة.
وأفادت المعلومات الصحافية، الخميس، ان النائب ابراهيم كنعان تقدم بإسم التكتل بافتراح يقضي بتعديل الدستور لتغيير آلية انتخاب رئيس الجمهورية، بحيث تت العملية مباشرة من الشعب.
ومن المتوقع ان يعقد كنعان مؤتمراً صحافياً الجمعة في مجلس النواب للإعلان عن تقديم اقتراح دستوري حول انتخابات رئاسة الجمهورية.
يُذكر ان رئيس التكتل النائب ميشال عون كان قد اعلن اواخر حزيران الفائت عن مبادرة وصفها بـ"الانقاذية"، من اجل انهاء مرحلة الشغور في سدة الرئاسة الاولى، وذلك من خلال إجراء تعديل دستوري "محدود" يهدف لجعل انتخاب الرئيس الماروني مباشرة من الشعب وعلى دورتين وان تختار كل طائفة نوابها.
الدورة الاولى "تأهيلية على مستوى الناخبين المسيحيين والثانية على المستوى الوطنية تجمع المرشحين الاولين"، يوضح عون.
ومع القاء رئيس الجمهورية السابق ميشال سليمان خطاب الوداع في 24 ايار الفائت، رافضاً التمديد ومع فشل النواب في انتخاب رئيس عتيد، دخل لبنان في مرحلة الشغور الرئاسي. ووفق الدستور فإن الحكومة "مجتمعة" تتولى صلاحيات رئاسة الجمهورية.
يُذكر ان مجلس النواب أقر في 31 ايار 2013 التمديد لنفسه 17 شهرا تنتهي في 20 تشرين الثاني 2014، في جلسة حضرها 97 نائبا، صوتوا جميعهم للتمديد، وقاطعها نواب "التيار الوطني الحر"، بعد أن فشلت جميع الأطراف السياسية بالوصول إلى قانون انتخاب في أربع سنوات منصرمة.
well they would, when the Finger Pointing Movement leader gets elected
normal isn't it, very democratic, inclusive and participative
really ironic and sad
رئيس لبنان القوي معروف من هو وهذه المرة لن يكون هناك مساومة والعماد عون يعيد لموقع الرئاسة هيبتها
this will be achieved through direct collaboration with syria and with the blessings if its allies in Lebanon
what a shame, after all the deaths and immigration that he caused in the 90s
he could have done it and showed everyone his true colors
look at the fpm defenders of the christian rights calling for the president be elected by the muslim majority, just yesterday gebran bassil was propped up screaming about how the rights of Christians in Lebanon are being violated on the presidential, parliamentary, and administrative levels. the fpm has turned into the ssnp and a cheaper version at that.
I agree flamy. and now i will wait for someone from the democratic fpm m8er's to tout de suite call for the abolition of the mounasafat! as this is not an yet an islamic republic but it is still a free-ish country and i will stay yadayada here all i want. i will even to the death defend your right to continue with your blablabla. you can try to shut me up democratically m8er's style by Hashem al-Salman-ing me though(:

14 Million in couple of hours on this hashtag ! for sure they want to boycott his public election because they will witness the big "Tsunami" !!
If the voting on your hashtag is anything like the voting here, then not much can be said.
i wonder sophia, in teh 1990s did u love lebanon more or ur general?
bc i sang the SONGS BACK THEN " MA BEDNA JEISH BI LEBNENIN ILLA EL JESIH L LEBNENE"
right? so shou 3ada ma bada so now we call for coordinating with syrians and the syrian army in particular
really what changed except u replaced the Palestinians by da3esh
its a good thing that u have an old pic of that guy, id like to believe that all our sacrifices and harassment by the syrian troops were not for nothing
i really hope that we were right back then and now he just went koukou
fantastic hashtag by the way who's running the FPM twitter account now that Hussein al-Hussein was arrested?
As usual, the FPM is ahead of the curve on democratic reforms. People should vote for the president, and the 2 round system ensures Christians have their say. The M14 dhimis are truly envious and it shows.
This is all heresy! Electing the president directly by the people would require changing the Lebanese System from a parliamentary system to one in which the president has all the powers like in the United States. This topic is much deeper than what the FPM wants it to be.
I just dunno how you keep doing it, flamethrower. I mean your style, your quickness, your sense of humor, your choice of words are truly incredible. Keep up the excellent work. You are an excellent debater!
"Pity the nation that acclaims the bully as hero,
and that deems the glittering conqueror bountiful.”
Gibran wrote these lines over 90 years ago and unfortunately we are still no wiser. Reading FPM's latest enlightened moves, one must wonder: which expired Parliament should pass this new law and which new parliamentary electoral law will legitimise this Parliament and this new electroal amendment in the first place? Which Cabinet should accept it? There is no legitimacy left to talk about, there is nothing left to have pity with. The only thing left is a deep feeling of shame and disgust.
Yeah it's about democracy, someone ask charbel nahhas about aounist democracy, truthfulness, constitutionality he'll tell you about hypocrisy, cynicism, backstabbing
These are Unchanging Unreformed Blockheads. To amend the constitution requires a legislative act of the Chamber of Deputies. By the Constitution, when there is a vacancy in the office of the President, the Chamber of Deputies can ONLY serve as an electoral body, not as a legislative body.
First there must be the election of a President under the existing constitutional rules. Then they can talk about amending the constitution to change the method of election.
Kenaan is supposed to be a lawyer and know these things, but is seems he has become a part of the group-think mentality at FPM where they are all on the same wave length with a bi-polar schizophrenic, who now has a broken arm.
Yislam timmak...but for some people unpatriotic hoodlums changing the rules as they go to suit their purpose while pulling the wool over the eyes of their blind, deaf and mute followers is par for the course. Just for the sake of being clear I am in full support of changing any law that subvert the will of the people but it has to be done legally and within the framework of the existing constitutional authority.
Article 69. - (Abrogated by the constitutional law of 8 May 1929
5) Should the presidency become vacant through death, resignation or other cause, the Assembly meets immediately and as a matter of right to elect a new President. If at the time the vacancy occurs, the Chamber happens to be dissolved, the electoral bodies are summoned without delay and, soon after the elections are held, the Chamber meets as a matter right.
Article 75. - (As modified by the constitutional law of 17 October article 40)
The Chamber meeting to elect the President of the Republic constitutes an electing body and not a deliberating assembly.
It must proceed solely, without delay or debate, with the election Head of the State.
ok so now we're contesting the parliamentary system
the same system you used to petition ur greatest idea so far
how funny, keep them coming FT
hahaha
all this region is under new era its been planned to divide it into sects fighting each other until death, the one who survives at the end will be sooo weak n be bought...pity that Christians are been caught in the middle
pst pst, axis of evil
look at teh latest democratic achivement in your beloved mama land
The Iranian parliament has sacked a minister- Reza Faraji-Dana for allowing students expelled from university over anti-government unrest in 2009 to return to college.
tsk tsk tsk, allowing students back to unis after manifesting in the streets and questioning ayat alshaytan ruling
"the bill presented by the FPM calls for all LEBANESE to elect their president"
Yeah that's why when Hariri gave his proposals to resolve the deadlock, you said "great now Hariri is telling the Christians how to elect their president." You're a hypocrite Flamethrower. Either this president is for Christians or it's for all Lebanese, make up your mind.
They weren't exactly proposals but when he was talking about the vacuum you said he was telling the Christians how to elect "their" president. Now you're all happy how it's for all Lebanese.
whatever happens to the fpm's claim that Aoun will only announce his candidacy only if he's the consensual president?
Aoun = Daaesh
Me or no one
Our ruling prevails
Ready to change anything that doesn't suit us
Finger pointing party (not invented but learnt from HA)
Both are opportunist
Attacking the weakers and poorest (1990)
Not religious but still using religion as pretext
There is a very long list of common aspects between IS and Aoun.
Leave it to the readers to add
If you are concerned by democracy you cannot say either follow fpm proposition or you are traitors. Let me explain to you: democracy means the liberty of voicing opinions and respect of each other's opinions.
Tf surprises me not that you voice such comments since you support Tayyar, which is an undemocratic party run in a autocratic nepotism manner, you also support Iran and Syria which wre among the few tyrannical countries still existing on earth.
