No, i don't like her because she done nothing good in my country. She just think of money on how her family will get rich and how she will remain in the position forever. Our president is not a good leader. For me she is a big trash.

I actually agree with you. But I do think that she is the lesser evil. Can you think of anyone to replace her who would not do the same? If you can I would like to know.

there are always better options for the Philippines, when we say there's no better one to replace GMA it's like saying no one is capable to be a leader including yourself. There are better people with integrity who can lead the country fair and well. I believe so. God knows.

GMA is a good leader. It's just that there are people who wants to grab her position that's why they are trying so hard to pull her down - so hard that peace and unity in the Philippines are affected... that's politics.

I rather liked him in the beginning, but the more I see of him the less I like him. I am not a political person, and I hate most politicians, I think they are into themselves and too much for greasing their own pockets than caring for our country, and our people who live here.

Traian Basescu, President of Romania - Traian Basescu, President of Romania
Yes, our romanian president is one of the most popular there were since our Revolution in 1989. He knows how to make himself admired by simple people, is open-minded but responsible in the same time making our (eternal) transition period more enduring.

Actually we had a common point of view in saying that Basescu is "a man of the people". Everyone is entitled to an opinion so... I do think that is important for a president to make it(her)self "liked" by the masses and Basescu is good at this, being often seen in the middle of the people, talking about common problems. Let's not forget that within his mandate Romania will join EU in January 2007 although it was a process started a few years ago. He can be ferm on issues like coruption, public administration, international affairs. Well, i'll rest my case :)

I do not like our president. He is not bright, and has no grasp on what he is doing. I cannot wait until he is out of office.

We don't have a president we have a Queen who doesn't rule the country and a Prime Minister who I dislike very much because he does not care about what is good for the people of the country and he is a puppet controlled by president Bush.

i like the president! The one thing that i want to curse is the mentality and attitude of the people. I really can't get into the bottom of saying how genius and wise are they... when choosing the best official to lead the country. What is the use of choosing the one to lead a certain community when oppositions takes the journey!
