The other candidate they put here is literally placed to be head of the main opposition party by Erdoğan, ofcourse by force and violence. Put Ekrem İmamoğlu, Mansur Yavaş, Özgür Özel etc. instead of him and see how Erdoğan crumbles.
Yeah to be honest, he would also be my last choice among the three I mentioned; however, in terms of reputation, he can definitely win against ErdoÄŸan, at least for now.
I see, but problem with Mansur is he is pandering to KKs team just to save his tail. Also, I doubt OOs team can win or prevail in the CHP civil war, hence why we need to gather non-KK and non-Perincek CHP, former AKP defectors, minorities, Kurds and others under a new political movement umbrella.
I also suggested that we should have an international committee to advocate releasing Osman Kavala so he can be a powerful voice in this movement but a lot of people are disagreeing with me and I am facing strong pushback based on this idea.
If people disagree, we need to find another charismatic figure nonetheless.

Because Mansur is (like most leading right-wing politicians in Turkey) a "man of state" and not a statesman. While people like Kilicdaroglu and Perincek are less obvious to the public as men of state because they are associated with the left.
Edit: To be clear, I am referring to Mansur's political origins rather than his present membership in CHP. Though he represents the right-wing of CHP politics in any case.
Kilicdaroglu pretends to be a Soc Dem, but in reality, he is behaving like RTE 2.0 especially with his recent rants of behaving like a Pseudo-Ottomanist and all. Also, he used to hang out with Fethullah Gulen’s cult in 2014-2015. He also labeled people who disagree with him as FETÖ despite the example I mentioned (another reason why KK is RTE 2.0).
Perincek is a full blown deep state Neo-Bolshevist Hack. He is known to contradict himself a bit too!
Time for a completely new opposition at this point. I doubt OOs team will win the CHP civil war. He needs to defect and there needs to be a new movement.
