Now that the election day is looming, I'll take the, erm, pleasure in examining each presidential candidate and share them with you. This is not an easy task. This takes a lot of research, a lot of time, and a lot of effort to talk about people who cannot buy my vote. ahahahah!
But may these little summaries help you in your decision for such a highly position in the government; may these not wander you to a confusing realm, but into a world of critical clarity not just for this coming May 10, but also for the future of our beloved country, Philippines. :)

PS: I'm having these summaries in alphabetical order, not in a manner of personal choice.

STANDARD BEARER OF THE LIBERAL PARTY
NOYNOY AQUINO

Yellow Man

Benigno Simeon "Noynoy" Cojuangco Aquino III was born on February 8, 1960 . Aquino studied in Ateneo de Manila University for his elementary, high school, and college education, graduating in 1981 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics. After college, he joined his family in Boston in exile.
From 1986 to 1993, Aquino was vice president and treasurer for Best Security Agency Corporation, a firm owned by his uncle Anolin Oreta. He went to work for the Central Azucarera de Tarlac in 1993, the sugar refinery owned by the Cojuangco clan. He started out as an executive assistant for administration, before becoming field services manager in 1996. Aquino was elected to the House of Representatives in 1998, representing the 2nd District of Tarlac.
Aquino was elected to the Senate in the May 14, 2007 midterm elections under the banner of the Genuine Opposition (GO), a coalition comprising a number of parties, including his own Liberal Party, seeking curb attempts by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo to amend the Constitution. He assumed his new office on June 30, 2007.

And yeah, now he's running for presidency.

I've been searching for songs to be downloaded. I guess I'm trying to cram songs into my head to make up for those months of less music. *laugh*

MUSIC MAKES ME FEEL ALIVE...
CONNECTING ME TO THE WORLD...
WITH A VOICE OF WONDER AND LIFE.
:)

Oh it's a cacophony of musical notes if I don't sort these in my head.
Let's get down to business, since a garrulous blog won't do it in.
Ha.

I like this song:

Oklahoma
by Billy Gilman

Suitcase packed with all his things
Car pulls up, the doorbell rings
He don't want to go
He thought he'd found his home
But with circumstances he can't change
Waves goodbye as they pull away
From the life he's known
For the last seven months or so

She said we found the man who looks like you
Who cried and said he never knew
About the boy in pictures that we showed him
A rambler in his younger days
He knew he made a few mistakes
But he swore he would have been there
Had he known it
Son we think we found your dad in Oklahoma

A million thoughts raced through his mind
What's his name, what's he like and will he be
Anything like the man in his dreams
She could see the questions in his eyes
Whispered "don't be scared my child
I'll let you know, what we know

About the man we found, he looks like you
And cried and said he never knew
About the boy in pictures that we showed him
A rambler in his younger days He knew he'd made a few mistakes
But he swore he would've been there Had he known it
You always said that this was something that you wanted
Son it's time to meet your Dad in Oklahoma

One last turn he held his breath
'Til they reached the fifth house on the left
And all at once the tears came rolling in
And as they pulled into the drive
A man was waiting there outside
Who wiped the worry from his eyes Smiled and took his hand

And he said I'm the man who looks like you
Who cried because I never knew
About that boy in pictures that they showed me
A rambler in my younger days I knew I made a few mistakes
But I swear I would have been there had I known it
Never again will you ever be alone
Son welcome to your home in Oklahoma

Just listen to it. You'll love his voice. :)
Well, his song has meat, has meaning.
It's a story in itself.
I've been looking for songs like this, songs that have stories..
not songs of noisy and loud nature.
well, i guess it goes with the likes of a personality.
:)

i just watched the Presidential Forum that took place in La Salle University. Ted Failon was the host of the said event. For the first part of the forum, each candidate was given two minutes to answer and defend themselves from the scorching questions that were thrown to them.
Shucks, I'd like to say so much about the forum... it was so interesting. Why? It's a battle of BRAINS, of GUTS, of VISION.

oh yeah.

They'll be representing our country. We have to know who they are.

It's high time we know what these candidates stand for.


I'd talk about them in the coming days. Piece by piece. One by one.


YOUTH, we are wiser and better.
We should vote for the one who's best for the position, the one with a S.M.A.R.T (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, Time-bound) VISION and a DETERMINED MISSION for our nation.

VOTE WISELY!
