There's so much fuss about Erap running again for President in 2010. Legally, pwede pa ba siya? :confused:
Sa mga abugado at constitutional experts natin dito, ano'ng opinyon niyo?

He only served half-a-term in office. So he can run one-and-a-half more times.
What other problem would there be? Heck, even jailed people can run for the senate or congress, what's to prevent a pardoned man?

No, he can't. Our Constitution expressly states that the President shall not be eligible for re-election and that voluntary renunciation of the office for any length of time shall not be considered as an interruption of the continuity of the service for the term for which he was elected.
GMA was the exception considering that when she assumed the presidency after Erap, she did not serve for more than 4 years of the remaining term of her predecessor.
Erap will probably argue that he did not voluntarily leave office and that he was forcibly removed which makes him eligible to run, but this was already settled by the Supreme Court in the case of Joseph Estrada vs. Aniano Desierto and Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, GR No. 146738, March 2, 2001 wherein the Court ruled that Estrada had, in fact, resigned. The SC said that while Estrada did not write any resignation letter, prior contemporaneous acts, coupled with the circumstances surrounding his departure of Malacañang and statements made beforehand was interpreted to be his act of resignation from office.Last edited by Altis6453; November 27th, 2007 at 03:37 PM.

I saw it from the news yesterday. Nabanggit nga ni M. Santiago na tatakbo daw ulti si Erap. Either of the billionaires daw ang mananalo: Villar, Roxas at Erap!

Ganun nga rin ang pagkakaintindi ko na once you get elected for president, whether matapos mo o hindi yung term mo for whatever reason e di ka na pwedeng tumakbo uli.

With the way Erap is attracting crowds on his visits in Tondo and Navotas, medyo tagilid ang kalaban pag tumakbo ulit ito. Baka manalo ulit siya..........
