Is like filing for application or auditioning for American Idol? because that's what I saw during season 11, but in this case, they were just there to file for their candidacy. But how come it's like making it spontanous for some reason? because of the MEDIA being there! other people won't be there if the media isn't there to sensationalize things again. As for them being interviewed, I like both Mitos magsaysay and Richard Gordon going head on for a debate to see which has a better initiative, though i see gordon's initiative more known and basic and not general. others, phew, being called the three musketters? that's not worth listening to. It's all political clans running again.....

Nat really I think American Idol is more credible. AT least,you got very good judges who are worthy of being called judges. The COMELEC just accepts any person ho has all documents and has the cash to run for a specific seat. I don't you can blame media for this.If they weren't there some candidates will go out of their way to bring them. An aspiring candidate has to get all the airtime that he can get. At least, his appearance today is free.

Hello Jeaneyvonne, I agree that comelec accepts people who have the requirements right, maybe if they can start small and then grow from there will be the best thing for all of us.sad to know they waste time just to file for candidacy and be known to be a useless and nuisance in the end. sometimes i don't find it amusing anymore.

Hello Aabuda, that has been the problem for a very long while now and today this is what happened to our country because we didn't chose the most pro active ones. we should do our best to choose the right candidates and not the popular ones. have a nice day
