Thoughts regarding the 2016 elections. I'm a newly registered voter of my city. And I am somehow confused on who to vote. There is this Vice President who's running for the highest position in our country. Jejemar Binay has served the Filipino people for a very long time. Used to be a makati mayor before jumping into the national post. We all know what happened to makati and how we can describe it as pure beauty. The country's business district. Where the land of the richest lives. Although in his resume he has done a lot for the city of makati, it was altered with criticism by the year 2014. A lot of graft and corruption cases were filed against him. It was when his name was ruined by the so called things he stole, millions and even billions that went straight to his bank accounts. The worse thing is we never even heard any response from him. He didn't clarify if the cases were filed against him were indeed true or just purely black propaganda. Then there comes Miriam defensor Santiago. Who I honestly believe was supposed to be a president when she first run. But the power of Ramos turned the election around. Miriam is very well know for her very frank and very logical way of approaching her haters and her bashers. She's well known by the netizens because of her pick up lines and of her very logical judgment. She's qualified to be an international judge. I started liking her when she lectured the young congressman about impeaching the former Supreme Court justice renato corona. The question is, she was faced with severe cancer last year. Does she still have what it takes to lead our country to success? Another is grace Poe. A daughter of the King of Filipino cinema. Was recently elected as Philippine senator. Once renounced her Filipino citizenship. Her whole family is us citizen. She uses her American passport when traveling abroad. She's known to be an adopted daughter of The late FPJ. I have nothing against her dad but I honestly think she's not qualified to run for the presidency. But this is just purely my perspectives. Then comes mar Roxas. The DILG secretary. Out of all the presidential candidate for me he has the most desire to be the Philippine president. I can clearly remember even the last national elections he wanted to run for the presidency. Informations about him says that he was a uPenn graduate. How he handled the Yolanda victims was the start of his downfall, also about the laglag bala issue in our country. I personally like him, but I still don't know if he can really lead our country. I really think he doesn't have what it takes, his judgments are somewhat failure. And then comes this darkhorse from Davao city. Who turned the old very dangerous, terrorist phrone and unpleasant surroundings of Davao around. Mayor rody duterte. Known for having the kamay NA bakal, really imposing rules and regulations. Hates the criminals and the drug addicts. I can't mention all his achievements being the mayor of Davao city as this will be a very long letter. I honestly think tho that his best downfall is that he's known to be a be womanizer. Wherever I look at it, whatever angle I use, it's very wrong. But I like his thinking when it comes to death penalty as I think that's what we need right now. We have encountered presidents with such a great educational back ground, why not try the kamay NA bakal for a Change? With that being said, I'm kind of favoring rody duterte a bit over Miriam Santiago. How about you people? Any thoughts?

Mar Roxas, Jejomar Binay, Mirriam Santiago anbd Du30 had all the best experiences in the government works. but only Binay and Duterte had only the experience of being in the local executive position close to the job of the President. Last time we vote for a total legislative and look what got us into. Ive seen Mirriam taking sides over and over, there was a time when she was pro Erap, same as Mar Roxas who has the balimbing attitude. Duterte might be some one but he's connections to the leftist and favoring him is even a greater threat. but I would love to see his proposals from time to time next years, i need to see this guy in the debates. Binay had allegations he did not answer, that makes him not qualified.
