It's election year next year and candidates are already lining up. I see their commercials on TV becoming more and more frequent. I really don't know who will be running next year for real and who will lead this race to the presidency and I really am not sure who to vote for as of now... For the Filipinos here, this early do you have any idea who you will be voting for next year? Or at the very least leaning towards a certain candidate. If you were to take your pick, who would you pick as the next president, whether or not he/she is running this coming election or not.

I don't trust any candidates because they are good at first but when they are elected they will just put all the funds in their pocket! this country will never succeed until, we people realize not to be greedy ! share all and not expecting in return! the most problem is poverty that's what we should focus on! why don't we just help each other to elevate our living rather than killing and robbing each others pocket!

You said it! So you too don't have a candidate in mind ei? So far no one has given any positive results for any candidate. It's really hard to choose, as long as the government has its ways set on the old, I don't think we will have any progress as well. yes, poverty is a very important issue... It is something that has to be alleviated. More jobs, better education and all those stuff.. it can be achieved if only even half of what politicians promised us come true, do you believe me?

Well I think I can sense in some that are quite obvious of their plans to run for the highest position of the land. I am pretty sure that we are all oblivious and anxious to know who they are after November when they would officially announce their intent to run. Right now, I have someone I think would help this country straighten up and I just do not know if he would definitely run since there are a lot of them who likes to run and joining in especially if you are not in a well oiled political party you would not be able to survive the campaign period.
