The allies, not the President want term extension?

It is more fun criticizing

Rizal, Philippines  |  August 28, 2014


From Rappler - Fr. Bernas warns vs term extension



After Fr Joaquin Bernas, a constitutional lawyer, one of the authors of 1987 constitution, former dean of Ateneo Law School, cautions Pres Pnoy on term extension, one begins to wonder, how a man of high integrity would meddle with a constitutional provision.

One can only speculate that it is his political allies, and his subalterns who want to enjoy the hay while they can, are behind this move.

Congresswoman sees nothing wrong with political dynasties

Social and political criticisms

From Philstar

In a speech during Cooperative Month celebration in Iloilo, a congresswoman, wife of a Senator sees nothing wrong with political dynasties.  It would seem normal for a professional as it is normal in other profession as being a lawyer, doctor etc.

The l987 constitution prohibits political dynasties:   Article 2, Section 26.  Earlier Sen Myriam Santiago and Rep. Casino bills to implement such anti dynasty prohibition of the constitution.

What do you think of the comment of the good congresswoman?

Is political dynasty good or bad for the country?
