Profiling the 2010 Presidentiables

Yesterday, I had the time to write about the psychological profiles of at least four (4) Presidentiables, namely: Noynoy Aquino, Manny Villar. Gibo Teodoro and Joseph Estrada. Read it at http://pinoyobserver.com. These posts are very interesting because these look at the psychological aspect rather than qualifications or what-have-you. In political analysis, political psychology is an important tool since this looks at how personalities would react in certain situations.

For example, Noynoy Aquino will suffer from some sort of a physical reaction when faced with a stressful situation. He is a strong-willed individual, believes in what he is fighting for, and has a genuine concern for his fellowmen. Under his administration, Noynoy will definitely allow the present crop of business elites to remain the same, and only those areas or fields that need to be changed will be attended to. Noynoy is also a revolutionary. He will welcome a change in the technological landscape. He loves to be with people and listen to their problems. He also has a philosophical mind.

Despite his public persona, Manny Villar has an independent streak in him. He loves life. He is a calculated risk-taker. He values freedom and is an incurable Optimist. He cherishes new ideas, will try them out, yet, will probably come up with one concrete solution after discussing the others. He is quite an adventure seeker and loves to travel to learn on new things. Definitely, under a Villar presidency, expect more foreign travels with him. Yet, society will be freer and more democratic under his stead.

Gibo, as I learned, has similarities with former president Fidel V. Ramos in terms of management and leadership styles. He is very intelligent, a quick thinker and very creative. He is somewhat a Noynoy Aquino opposite since Gibo will probably be more flexible in terms of welcoming new ideas rather than opposing them.

If you closely look at the psychological profile of former president Joseph Estrada, he surely is destined to be the President of our country. He has all the attributes of a Leader. He is bright, a risk-taker, a zealot, and possesses natural managerial skills. He loves action and hates routine. That's why expect a revival of midnight Cabinet meetings should we elect him back.

I have three more profiles to write---Richard Gordon, JC delos Reyes and Eddie Villanueva. Read them all at PinoyObserver (http://pinoyobserver.com/ or at http://www.pinoyobserver.wordpress.com/).
