Only four members of the Political Committee of the ruling Dominican Liberation Party, the key group that decides party policies, are not part of the Fernandez 2008-2012 administration, according to a report in Diario Libre today. In its first government in 1996, the PLD had considered no member of the Political Committee should be in the cabinet. But today, only former secretary of the Presidency Danilo Medina, former Vice President Jaime David Fernandez Mirabal, former director of Migration Carlos Amarante Baret and former Minister of Tourism Felix Jimenez (Felucho) have not been included in the 2008-2012 cabinet. The first two aspired to the Presidency. On 16 August, President Fernandez appointed Fernandez Mirabal to be his Minister of Environment. But Fernandez Mirabal has not yet accepted the post. Medina did not campaign for Fernandez into the 2008 election, as he opposed reelection.
