The list of Presidentiables 2010 (Philippines)

Ayan na mga ditse, nilabas na ang shortlist ng mga haka hakang tatakbo raw as candidate for President of the Philippines in 2010. Hindi ko nakita sa list ang ating ina-asahang Francis “Kiko” Pangilinan or Mar Roxas whom I’ve heard through the grapevine, is supposedly running as well. Sir Kiko did mention that he is mulling over running as an Independent for Vice-President instead. Hmmmm… puwede pa kaya siyang mag change ng mind? I mean, the list is quite crazy.
Before anything else, there’s good news. Approved na raw ng Congress ang budget for automated polls for the 2010 elections. Tapos na ang mga linggo-linggong bilangan, dayaan, at paghihintay ng resulta (habang nagbabayad yung iba sa chorva-chorvang mga voters) etc. etc. Therefore, there is a chance that they could bring back the credibility of a democratic election in the Philippines. Who knows? I sincerely hope na gamitin ang automation to stop fraud talaga. Pero, ang dami na raw kumokontra (as in di naman daw kailangan, baka naman daw ma-hack lang yung system chever chever!) Hmmmf! Anovey?
Heniwey, here’s the list in no particular order. We will have a poll at the end of the post to see if you are to vote today – kung ngayon ka boboto, sino ang iboboto mo galing sa listahang ito? Sa totoo lang, nagulat din ako sa listahan. Kaya, maupo kayo habang binabasa ninyo.
Noli De Castro
Chiz Escudero
Loren Legarda
Manny Villar
Ping Lacson
Joseph Estrada (HA?! Sa totoo lang.. walang biro?)
Richard Gordon
Bayani Fernando
Gilbert Teodoro
Mike Velarde
Ngayon mga ditse, sa listahang ito – may mapipili ka ba na sa palagay mo ay magbibigay halaga sa pagbabago ng ating gobyerno? Pagbabago ng buhay ng Pilipino? Ikauunlad ng Pilipinas? I am a bit skeptical although I haven’t really studied each candidate’s CV just yet. I need to know what they stand for before I can choose. I am going to do that soon. I will DEFINITELY NOT VOTE for Joseph Estrada. Come on people!!! Wake up and smell the freaking coffee.
As promised, here’s our poll:
























Anybody but Bayani Fernando. He has the tendency of a dictator. He goes beyond his duty.
ang mga kabataan ang simula kaya this coming election si Chiz Escudero na ang “SIMULA NA NG PAGBABAGO” ng trapong gobyerno ng Pilipinas.
sana si Mayor Binay na lang ang tumakbo for president. Dahil kaya nyang pagsamahin ang mahirap at mayaman ng walang umaangal. at napaalis nya ang mga squatters sa tabi ng riles ng walang angal.
all presidentiables may have some stock shares with all this big companies existing in this beloved country of ours. would they be in favor of supporting filipino inventions that would lessen the demand for crude oil,importation of rice, and alleviate the peso rate versus the us dollar same as the ramon magsaysay era?could they make the street safe and quiet like the days when manny pacquiao has big fights in boxing. who has the political will to finish all pending projects and promises for mindanao?whoever has the capacity and integrity to sign a law against nepotism,public bidding to be televised for transparancy,and the law against politician putting their faces on billboard and expressing that they were the one who done such bridge or roads rather than putting the amount used on the projects and the time table of project completion. this are few of my views and the bottomline who is the one with the patriotism as Dr. Jose Rizal?
Mike Velarde, nyahahahahah! Nah, seriously, si Chiz mukhang ok.
vote for chiz! he’s the man!
vote for loren legarda, kse xia ang karapat dapat na maging president sa pilipinas… ooohhhh…..LOREN LEGARDA!

I agree. Sya lang ang dapat pagkaisahan ng opposition. Dati na syang lider nila at lider hanggang ngayon. Nasa kanya lahat ng kailangan ng bansa ngayon at bukas.
To all – I really liked what I saw in Mayor Binay.. specially in Makati. “Ganito kami sa Makati!” campaign was surprising to me.
I asked people around and they did say that the ad is true. Free school supplies sa Makati, Free medical care sa Makati..blah blah blah.
If the Filipino people could believe it and it’s true, I have no problems with Mayor Binay to run for President. I’m sure he’ll get a lot of support.
for me i give my vote to chiz escudero(nasa kabataan ang pag asa ng bayan)my second choice is my idol erap estrada pero sana po give your support to chiz MR.PRESIDENT JOSEPH E.ESTRADA.i beging you.sana po mapaunlad na natin ang ating bayan ng kami na nandito sa abroad in london makauwi sa ating bansa.MABUHAY PO KAYO PRESIDENT ERAP AT SA SUSUNOD NA PANGULO NG REPUBLIKA NG PILIPINAS MR.FUTURE PRESIDENT CHIZ ESCUDERO
I’d rather go for either Noli de Castro or Chiz Escudero bcoz I know they will raise the Philippine economy from falling.
do you still remember when noli de castro was still with magandang gabi bayan?he is very critical about the politicians who are corrupt or not doing their job…banat siya nang banat pero ngayon that he is now with one if not the most corrupt administration we ever had,he doesnt even say anything.i hope they will play the tapes during the campaign so the people will come to know who he is.
I will not vote mar roxas because of corina sanchez, baka maging imeldefic!
You did not include Nicanor Perlas. He is a real alternative, as he has never been in the tainted field of politics. I no longer want to just choose the lesser evil. I want a real choice. There are others who will allude that they are the change this country needs and they will paint you picturesque images of honor and virtue. But you see through people. These are mere packaging, cover-ups, pretty wrapping. Nick Perlas’ integrity is without question. He lives and breathes it, conscious about each thought, word, feeling and act, and its power in the world. Not only is he competent (you can check his work in http://www.nicanorperlas.com, its quite a feat), he walks his talk and is the only one who is truly sincere about awakening the Philippines to its highest potential.
just visit loren’s website…www.lorenlegarda.com

khit mrami kumandidato d prin cla ang solusyon.
No offense meant to ardent supporters of Noynoy, some of whom are my close friends. Just a point of view of a non political observer.
NOY
In every election, the easiest choice to make is, who you would not vote for. This year, it is profoundly difficult because for me the easiest identifiable candidate whom I would not vote for, (aside from Erap of course, for who would vote for a convicted plunderer) is a leading candidate, with the widest of margin in the survey, Noynoy. He probably will be the next president and so, in my heart, I tried my best to consider and reconsider my decision, yet I became more convinced that he is my best choice on whom not to vote for. These are in my thoughts:
He is clean and honest
He really is unblemished, squeaky clean and immaculate.. His record for nine years speaks for himself. I am reminded of a friend of mine, a cocky but very articulate and bright Solicitor General. At a certain time before he started winning his cases, his critics had a heyday criticizing the way he handled his job. They said, he had a perfect record of losing all cases. Thus, his record was clean and unblemished of victory. Like this solicitor general, Noynoy has also no record of dishonesty simply because he has no record of accomplishment at all. He was one of the prominent members of the committee of silence. I goggled his name to find out if, except for his name, there was anything he did that he should be proud of. I am sorry that I found nothing. It is time he reveals what he had done in congress for nine years, plus two years in the senate, to deserve the presidency. When he ran for Senate, he simply relied on his family name and the endorsement of his mother. Being in the Senate with no accomplishment will not hurt the nation except the wasted money paid to him as a public servant. But to be president and not knowing what to do is probably as disastrous as a corrupt president.
He comes from a good stock
A prominent columnist of the Inquirer believes that since hero’s blood runs in his veins, he is a natural hero and would do nothing to shame the good name. The prominent columnist also said that what we need is a good heart and correct values and Noynoy fits to the T. Of course heritage is a plus factor but unfortunately, this is no assurance that he too will be as upright as his parents. We do not have to look far. Look at his sister. She even gloated and flaunted her sexual indiscretions and gave press interviews of her indecent acts, in spite of the fact that at that time, her dear mother was very much alive. She fueled salacious gossip about her sexual escapades that she grabbed the headlines for days of the local papers. Not only that. She proudly proclaimed that she will have to do a wash over of sorts, on the personality of Noynoy. To be fair, since Noynoy is not the sister’s keeper, he should publicly open how he spent his several hundred million, probably billions of pesos, if cumulatively taken together, of pork barrel. Joker and Lacson did not spend a single centavo on their pork barrel allocations. Moreover, Noynoy has not been battle tested; we do not know how he will react to temptation, simply because he has not been where the action is. He can not honestly and truthfully say that he is goodness personified and all others are evil just because he is the son of Cory. It is sheer arrogance and hypocrisy to make such claim.
He comes unprepared
Before the death of former Pres Cory, nobody considered him of presidential caliber, not even for vice president. His party mates knew of his capabilities and did not even look at his direction when they then considered their standard bearer. Noynoy himself, conscious of his own limitations, did not even dream of being one. When his mother died and there was public mourning, all of a sudden, his party mates in spite of knowing his limited capabilities, and taking advantage of public sentiments, pushed him to be a candidate to the noble office of the presidency. This factual milieu clearly shows that his popularity is solely and purely for sentimental reasons, the death of Pres Cory. His supporters are praying to high heavens that the public sentiments on his parents would not wane and that the public would not see through the real Noynoy. Stripped of all sentimentality, there is nothing in his bio data that shows he is capable of the challenges of the highest office of the land. His biodata is uninspiring, to say the least. Aside from his public office due to his lineage, he was a sales person of Mondragon Industries, and a member of the board of directors of a security agency which the family owns. How in heavens name will he run the country?
Pres Cory’s landmark of achievement in her administration was her Land Reform program. Our own 24 hectares of irrigated rice land in Kinamayan, Davao del Norte was subjected to land reform and my Dad wanted to fight it out but I counseled him to surrender the land as I explained to him that ultimately the entire country will benefit from this pestering problem of unjust distribution of wealth. He understood the situation that each of us had to make sacrifices for the common good. This is not a unique scenario in Mindanao, then known as the Land of Promise . Little did we know that Pres Cory distributed all other people’s landholdings except her own Hacienda Luisita. She asked all of us to make sacrifices, except her own family. Her tenants protested and in the ensuing protest several tenants were mowed down. The tenants were unarmed and no casualties were suffered on the side of the soldiers trying to disperse the tenants. Of course, Noynoy is not her mother’s keeper, nor do I intend to diminish her mother’s role as our leader who toppled the dictatorship.
But when Noynoy declared his candidacy, he was asked point blank, what he planned to do with Hacienda Luisita. He had no ready answer but promised to give a stand soon. Three months passed and still no answer. Is he really prepared?
Trust
The argument goes, that since the people lost trust in the present leadership, Noynoy comes as a white knight, enjoying the trust and confidence of the people. But why should we trust Noynoy? Has he done something to deserve our trust?” Trust is earned, deserved and not bestowed nor inherited. We are now bombarded with propaganda about the goodness of Pres Cory, to the extent that Noynoy propagandists even go to the limit of declaring her a saint, in the hope that people will also view Noynoy as saint- like. The Liberal Party had even formulated its battle cry: “this (the election) is a fight between good and evil”. My goodness, don’t you agree that a man who pontificates that he represents goodness is really suspect of some loose screws somewhere.
Noynoy’s handlers forgot the basic need of a responsible candidate-the need to have an advocacy. It should be pointed out that Noynoy has no advocacy at all in his public life. He won his senate seat solely upon his family name, like Loi Ejercito, Pia Cayetano, Bong Revilla and the like. This is very important to those who are very discerning. We do not know to what directions we will be going, with him as a leader. It is fearsome to have a president who is not only unprepared and unqualified, but also to be under the control of unknown advisers and heaven forbid, under the tutelage of his movie star sister. It becomes more dreadful because his popularity is seemingly sustained, thanks to the biased and twisted reporting of our media and most especially of a very large TV network who all have their interests to protect.
The above mentioned points are correct.
I am simply saying that Noynoy is “Not Worth to Vote for Him” because:
1. He has no capability to govern
2. He relies solely on the name of his parents
3. He has no advocacy
4. He has no achievement on his own
5. He is pure creation of media
Sadly, only Noynoy has all these attributes among all presidential candidates.
