If you're open to suggestions for the next President, if we're just talking about qualifications,
I hope you consider Teodoro. Not for anything, he's low key, & delivers on his word. I think he's able. I'm still doing research on the guy. He may be far from popular now as he's probably unknown to many, but from what I'm gathering he has "it." The only "possible negative" is that he's related to Danding, but let's see.
As for GMA, she had the chance to show her class, but she didn't. She should have just stuck to her achievements (whatever that is), and let history judge her accordingly. But as pride would have it, she wanted to have the last say---and so she thinks.
The integrity issues of Garci and reneging on her word not to run again, the extra-judicial killings, the corruption charges vs the husband, etc., are just too glaring to forget.
We Pinoys have short memories. We're also too nice and tolerant as a people. We compromise a lot, even our values. We look at "lesser evils" when we should look for upright people. We turn a blind eye even when bad things happen. We don't call a spade a spade when we should. Where is the concept of right and wrong, or good or bad going? Wala na ba tayong sense of judgement? Or do we merely look to someone to whom we can benefit the most? Parang ganun na kasi kababa yung taong bayan eh. As some would say, weather, weather lang yan...
