Alam ko mga known candidates are De Castro, Fernando, Villar, Legarda and Binay. May mga iba pa dyan pero ito pa lang ang mga nagformal announcement. But I think its still premature we still have 2009 to go.

November 19th, 2008 02:41 AM #45In a way, he is able to do this because of the strategic standing of Makati. Most of the big business have it's base in Makati and therefore pay business taxes (and real estate taxes) to Makati LGU. And these businesses pay big taxes. However, these businesses usually are not Makati residents and therefore do not vote for the local candidates in Makati.
With a good source of income (from the business taxes and real estate taxes of big businesses), they can have programs and can find financing. In a way, the taxes paid by the big businesses (not residents of the LGU) are paying for the benefits and programs of the LGU that benefit those other people. It would be a good thing to see this happen nationally... but since control ni Binay ang Makati Council.. it's much easier to do....
However, kung president na... you have Senate, Congress.. all the provinces na may kanya kanyang mga motibo... ewan ko lang...

Binay runaway winner in presidential poll
Binay runaway winner in presidential poll
Pulse Asia's Ulat ng Bayan Survey for March 19-26, 2014 shows 40% will choose Binay as their first choice for president in 2016
MANILA, Philippines – If presidential elections were held today and they were among the candidates, Vice President Jejomar “Jojo” Binay would clobber Local Government Secretary Manuel “Mar” Roxas, who is being eyed as standard-bearer of the ruling Liberal Party for the 2016 presidential elections.
According to the Pulse Asia Ulat ng Bayan Survey for the period March 19-26, 2014, Binay would be the runaway winner with 40% selecting him as their first choice. In comparison, Roxas rated 6%, just a notch ahead of Senator Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr who got 5%.
A distant second to Binay was Senator Grace Poe with 15%, followed by Senator Miriam Defensor Santiago with 10%, and Senator Chiz Escudero with 9%. Roxas ranked No. 5 with his 6% rating, followed by Marcos. Poe topped the senatorial race in 2013, an unexpected feat at the time.
Roxas has been plagued by criticism for his handling of the recent disasters that have hit the country – among them, the Zamboanga siege of September 2013 and the devastating Super Typhoon Yolanda that hit parts of the Visayas in November 2013.
Ranking No. 7 in the list of preferred presidential candidates were Senator Alan Peter Cayetano and celebrity and presidential sister Kris Aquino with 4% each. Senator Ramon “Bong” Revilla Jr, who faces a plunder charge before the Office of the Ombudsman, obtained a 3% rating and ranked No. 8, followed by Rehabilitation Czar Panfilo “Ping” Lacson with 2%.
Cayetano, also Senate Majority Leader, is said to harbor presidential ambitions. He has taken a vocal stance against colleagues in the Senate implicated in the pork barrel scam that has put to waste millions of pesos in lawmakers' funds.
The survey, a copy of which was obtained by Rappler, polled 1,200 and carried an error margin of ±3% for respondents nationwide. For respondents in the National Capital Region, the Balance of Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, Pulse Asia reported an error margin of ±6%.
Across the regions, Binay consistently rated high. He was highest in the balance of Luzon with 44%, followed by the National Capital Region (NCR) with 38%, Mindanao with 37%, and the Visayas with 35%.
Across economic classes, he was also the preferred presidential candidate, getting the approval of 47% of classes ABC, 42% of class D, and 34% of class E. The majority of Filipino voters come from classes D and E.
