picking based on surveys: this message was only intended for people who keep on bringing up surveys as a measure of qualification for the presidency. if you are making a principled choice and you've looked at the right criteria for a presidency (whether gordon, villar, noynoy, gibo, etc.), whomever you are voting for is never a wrong one.
what we're trying to correct are those folks who just pick among the "top two" choices of the country because only these two are "winnable". yung mga botanteng parang feeling ba e mapapahiya pag hindi nanalo kandidato nya... ano to, boxing? i sense that you get my point.
intelligent voters & gordon: the association seems to have been born based on observation. just look around in forums, and see that other candidates' supporters seem to be using the wrong criteria & logic for picking their candidate.
picking a candidate nowadays has been made so complicated and overly analytical, that we've forgotten how beautifully simple it is: pick the guy who can do the job best. philippine elections have always been popularity contests, who would disagree? people lack the desire to research and make contemplated decisions (in short, lazy), that's why they depend on other people's opinions. how do you know other people's opinions? surveys.
now, for people sticking it out with an able leader like gordon despite that he's lagging the surveys, simply means they are making a principled choice. between a person sticking to a principled choice vs a person voting because of winnability, whom do you think can stand on his own & think for himself? if he can think for himself without being swayed by anybody, he's intelligent.
big difference running subic vs pinas: i've seen this bad logic far too many times. syempre naman big difference, but are you saying pinas has a better fighting chance with someone who didn't manage successfully a "small" area than someone who did? this is elementary.
cut out to be president: agree, the presidency is not for everybody. that's why i personally use multiple factors for picking: credentials, leadership, character, platform, presence. there are candidates who have character, but lack the other attributes. there are candidates who have credentials, but lack leadership & presence. when picking, find one that has most of these characters. don't be one-sided, don't pick a candidate with just one strength/quality, we need a well-rounded president.
gma has credentials: another fallacy. gma has credentials, and gma has become evil. therefore, anybody who has credentials will become evil? again, elementary.
gordon leading mock polls: who's saying the polls where gordon is leading are accurate? who's claiming that gordon is the absolute winner because the polls here are showing it? i think the other camp is the one saying that. we've even gotten used to being called a supporter of the "kulelat". go check.
what we celebrate though is the fact that more educated people who have access to the internet and students of our premiere universities UP, ateneo & la salle, who are more capable of critical thinking, rank gordon higher than those so-called top two presidentiables. that's something to toast about.
but when one of those two "lesser evils" wins it, that's no longer our fault, right? our conscience is clean.
here's a question to ask ourselves at the polling booth: "when i vote for this candidate, will he allow me to sleep well, with the decision i make, during six years of his presidency?"

who said that people are voting bec of survey results? probably some but not here, not me. if I choose other candidate it's not bec I was sway by the survey.
- hoping that some Pinoy may think like that, because some pinoy does still go with the flow of surveys alone
majority of the people already know who they will vote for even before the survey's result came out.
I agree with you that everybody has the right to vote for whoever they want, whatever the reasons maybe, it's their rights anyhow then I hope the Gordon supporters will just stop self proclaiming themselves as the only "intellect voters" and branding other Presidential candidates supporters as the stupid voters. nobody has the monopoly of intelligence.
- sorry if other supporters do, as anyone or everybody is unique and intellect.
I really don't want to join the discussion bec politics and religion are two topics that people will never change their stands, nobody will budge anyway and whatever we say here wala naman tayong magagawa talaga eh, I only have one vote as if it can change anything.
- two topics that will be never ending story.
but pag nakakabasa ako na pag Gordon supporters intelligent voters pag ibang candidate ang sinusupport eh mga bobo na, especially pag nag post yun isang fanatic na si mick2.
lumalabas kasi Gordon supporters are belittling the intelligence of other candidate's supporters.
- my apology
- if I may please call on the attention of other forumers to please learn how to respect each reply on every thread, especially here in the Politics forum; we have our own candidate, that is what & who he wants to vote, so lets leave him for that. Let us not be dictated on who to vote, but to vote a candidate whom you perceive that will uplift our country.

Well said.
It doesnt really matter if Gordon comes last, as long as we voted for the candidate that we firmly believe will be the best.
Doing the right thing for the right reason.
We are already missing the reason why we have elections.

rephrase:
if you want change/progress/development/something getting done/value for the tax we pay, vote for Gordon
if you're happy with the philippine gov't now/don't want change/maintain corruption in all sector/maintain all injustices/maintain all crimes/maintain money=power, don't vote for gordon
