This is how he raised it Camila Zuluaga in ‘Caracol Code’, who assured that “the dolphin is interested in politics and an eventual arrival to the Presidency” of the Republic.

However, Tomás Uribe could take a little longer to get there, as his aspiration would not be so immediate. He would let the 2022 elections pass and could choose to gain some experience in public office and politics to be a candidate later.

For this reason, there are “voices in uribism that have already begun to propose that Tomás should be the replacement of Marta Lucía Ramírez in the Vice Presidency,” said the journalist. Although to others it sounds more like a candidate.

And it is not a secret that The current vice president can leave her position, which she would have to do no later than next March, to run as a candidate for the Presidency.

But in addition, Zuluaga affirmed that she contacted Tomás Uribe and that she did not deny that possibility, although, she said, “The question is whether or not President Iván Duque is familiar with the idea”.

And it is that since the end of 2020 there has been commentary on the possible arrival of Álvaro Uribe Vélez’s eldest son to get fully involved in politics; especially, after the resignation of the former president to the Senate in August of last year.

A few days after Uribe ceased to be a congressman, it was known that his heir became part of the Centro Democrático team and just a few weeks later he appeared on the front page of a medium stating that Tomás Uribe could be a candidate, which many interpreted as a nod from Uribismo to the ‘dolphin’ and a brake on other potential candidates.

One of the strong ones, at that time, was the recently deceased Defense Minister Carlos Holmes Trujillo, who had also sounded like the chosen one, along with others like Paloma Valencia, who expressed her intention to be president of Colombia.
