Ang mahirap, kung pagbabasehan ko ito, mas posible kong iboto yung mga "hindi ko pa masyadong kilala ang likaw ng bituka" at hindi pa "nababahiran ng maruming pulitika". Ngunit, hindi rin naman ako nakakasiguro kung hindi nga sila gagawa ng kapalpakan katagalan. Sana, magpakalalaki ang mga taga-COMELEC. Gumawa sila ng isang "advertisement" o "presentation" na naglalayong ipresenta ang lahat ng mga kandidato mula ulo hanggang paa, himayin ang mga plataporma, ihayag ang mga katiwalian sa nakaraan upang malaman talaga ng taong bayan ang pagkatao ng mga tatakbo. <br /><br />Pero maaaring iyan ay maging pangarap ko na lamang habangbuhay.Mike Avenuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10614538043209051842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4988840146314740773.post-46622982167730407342009-09-13T09:18:08.874+03:002009-09-13T09:18:08.874+03:00Ms.Jo, true, politics is a good investment in the ...Ms.Jo, true, politics is a good investment in the Philippines.

At karamihan sa kanila malayo sa ideal. So what do we do? Choose those who closely meet our own ideals. Hopefully, magkakaparehas ang judgment natin, but at the end of the day, magkakaiba pa rin ang kalalabasan nating choices.atto aryohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16762087147430357408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4988840146314740773.post-14750887766559917872009-09-10T04:22:35.093+03:002009-09-10T04:22:35.093+03:00Sinabi mo pa, gusto ko na ngang mag boycott eh... ...Sinabi mo pa, gusto ko na ngang mag boycott eh... hehhe, usually kasi wala tayong napapala from our votes, they use it for their personal agenda...shenghttp://sdumalay.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4988840146314740773.post-74868684922730122292009-09-09T21:34:54.226+03:002009-09-09T21:34:54.226+03:00magaling magaling magaling....sana mabasa ito ng m...magaling magaling magaling....sana mabasa ito ng mga masa at mga politiko at matutukan at makilatis lahat ng mga kandidato at hindi na lang lagi nakatutuk sa programa sa telebisyon na panay ang giling-giling lol....mabuhay...mightydaczhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02145689104154401376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4988840146314740773.post-79460496709925400052009-09-09T17:55:18.599+03:002009-09-09T17:55:18.599+03:00Sad to say, the majority of the 'masa' or ...Sad to say, the majority of the 'masa' or the 'taong-bayan' couldn't gain access to the www and read this post; how I wish the politicians you're referring here could...<br /><br />Inaasahan kong sa final paragraph ay may iri-recommend po kayong candidate, kahit na sa presidential position lang po. o",)RJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03928823890471533284noreply@blogger.com
