A few months before the next legislative elections, the FLN and the RND, two Alliance partners  and Presidential hopefuls are engaged in a race where everyone will fight tooth and nail for his political ambitions. The FLN wants to keep its majority in the elected assemblies and the RND wants to regain the same majority it had in 1997.  Also, the legislative elections next April will engage both sides in a no holes barred battle.

The challenge is twofold. Nationally, to win seats for parliamentary elections and local communal elections which will happen before the end of 2012. But there also the 2014 presidential election. the FLN and RND are aware the upcoming legislative constitute a policy review allowing them to gauge their abilities and their chances at the next
Presidential election. it will be some sort of launch pad. The challenge is all the more interesting because this is the first time since 1999 that the contest is clear between the ambitions of  pro-Ahmed Ouyahia and Abdelaziz Belkhadem. supporters. 

For this reason,  even the debates on the draft organic law on the electoral system, which  were held on October 4 and 5 revealed a pronounced gap between the FLN and RND. this covered all supporting for the reforms initiated by the head of state. The FLN it pulls in all diections. The waves of strife and the rise of the movement reformers in the party are in evidence. In addition, there are statements and counter declarations that the exchange  between the two formations (FLN-RND), which feed the  presidential ambitions of each  to preside over the destiny of Algeria in 2014.

Contrary to what he said at the People's  Assembly for the National Congress (NPC), on the occasion of  a debate on the representation of women in the assemblies elected, by reducing their quota From 30 to 20%, Abdelaziz Belkhadem said later  in Algiers,  that his party is in favor of  the enlargement representation of women in the elected  assemblies  and was able to support "Candidates in all municipalities in the country ".


Speaking at a meeting organized by the secretariat the wilaya of Algiers Union Algerian national youth (Unja), under the theme "Youth and political action, " the Secretary General of the  FLN considered  it "essential to trust the young and gradually help them access positions of responsibility, "before calling the limits of its formation "in open the doors to young ".

Meanwhile, the National Office National Gathering Democracy (RND) decided to Meanwhile, to hold  on 28 to 29 October, a national meeting secretaries of the party wilaya to assess the organization the grassroots level and begin preparations for the next elections. During the meeting chaired by Ahmed Ouyahia, the RND also decided to organize outings on the ground for awareness and mobilization in the framework of political  communication and for the explanation of the  party message and its positions . This means that the two parties of the alliance are already on the starting blocks in anticipation a future election.

It is, of course desirable that  during hostilities revived by the two political parties they are  able to explain their ambitions as avowed their bosses, who are aspiring to be candidates for next presidential election, in 2014.Indeed, Ahmed Ouyahia and Abdelaziz Belkhadem seem well placed for a presidential destiny. Moreover, neither the one nor the other do not hide their ambitions. The personal representative of the Head of the state, would run the Belkhadem meetings and gatherings during conflicts within the FLN. Worse still, the head of FLN thinks it is the best  political position for him. with a mix of religious conservatism and nationalist history. In fact, he has engaged in the encounter with the founder of the former FIS and other ex-leaders of the AIS hoping to attract to his side the Islamists of all stripes, down perspectives and a candidate potential for presidential 2014.

While his competitor in the Alliance forthe office of  president, Ahmed Ouyahia, Secretary General of RND,  champing at the bit since 1998, has relented and declared publicly in a  television broadcast television that "the presidency of Republic is a meeting of man and his destiny. " Hence, it is necessary, in turn, invest in the field of policy to be able to reposition and offer the majority at the next election law,  something constituting a launching ramp or  an anteroom ffor the presidential contest in  2014.
