 Colombia's President, Juan Manuel Santos
On Wednesday, Mr Santos announced his intention to run again for the office he has been holding since 2010.
But Vice-President Angelino Garzon says he will not be part of the president's ticket in the 2014 elections.
President Santos said he wanted to finish what he had started. One of his main goals has been the ongoing peace talks with the rebel group Farc.
After nearly a year of negotiations, the government and the left-wing militant group have agreed on two issues of a six-point agenda.
Speaking on national television on Wednesday, Mr Santos said he had a duty to see the process through.
