Knowing the "presidentiables": Mar Roxas

Just read At Midfield of my good friend and colleague Ding Gagelonia. They had this dinner with Liberal Party "probable" presidential bet Mar Roxas and the anecdotes point to a rather cozy and excellent meeting with him. He answered most of the questions I posted at FilipinoVoices.com and my other blogs (one of the emerging ones, PinoyObserver which has a very loyal following throughout the globe) and calling Kevin Ray. You don't have to respond anymore coz I now have an inkling on what Mar would do should he get the top plum.

However, what I want our readers to know is, there's something in Abe Margallo's post (read the redherring blogsite) that seems rather disturbing to say the least, about Mar. He wrote about his previous actions and that is not very comforting. Nonetheless, from today up to May 2010, that's a lot of time for a man such as Mar to change perspective. If only the Patriots of the New Generation would actually go speak to him, the way they did with Jamby, then, I believe we will have a probable Obama.

In the next entries of this blog, we will feature the life-stories of these presidentiables. One, to give our people a peek into their lives. And two, to probably help them decide who to vote for come 2010. So, stick around and read!

    The session was productive for a first salvo but it would have been further enriched if you were there. Am sure you will be there next time, bro. :)

  2. Last May, 2007, around 100,000 Overseas Filipinos participated in the online Mock Elections for Philippine Senators. It was so successful that nine out of the twelve elected senators matched our results!



    After the Senatorial Mock Elections, it is now time for the online Mock Nominations for the next Philippine President. The Presidential Elections will be held in 2010 but as early as now, a number of names have come out in the news. Who do you think should be our next President? What qualities should the next President have?



    The voice of Filipinos around the globe, our unsung heroes, deserves to be heard again by the voting public. The choices of the Filipinos overseas, both working and residing abroad, are important!



    Let us contribute in making an informed voting public and help them choose intelligently!

Thank you very much for reading my blog. You inspired me. But if you intend to put your name "anonymous", better not comment at all. Thanks!
