VP Harris concedes to Trump on Presidential race; but fight continues....

It is more fun criticizing

VP Presidentail candidate Kamala Harris delivered her concession speech.  However, the fight continues.

It would be the last time KH would deliver a national speech to the nation as a Presidential candidate.

President Biden's bad performance in US Presidential debate and gaffes - are they good for USA and reelection

It is more fun criticizing

Pres Biden was highly criticized for his very poor performance in US Presidential Debate with former Pres. D. Trump -  sometimes hesitating, blundering, incoherent.   Signs of dementia; cognitive decline

Elsewhere he did not do well in radio interview -  mixing up his thoughts regarding working with black Pres, and black woman VP.    The gaffes are sometimes pitiful.

There have been clamor for him to stop his reelection bid from his own party and have him replaced by the VP

Are this gaffes and signs of old age minor, or is it bad for his campaign and his stature as Pres of USA, to the rest of the world who look up to USA.?

Who is going to win the election?

It is more fun criticizing

What is your prediction.?  I do not like the winner in the survey but from the looks of it he is going to be the winner of the 2022 Presidential election.  

This post wonders why there is such a strong following despite all the mud that has been thrown to him?
Is it because he is good looking as well as his running mate that the young voters who comprise the majority are attracted to him?  Or may be they do not know his past well enough.  Or that many think that the sins of the father cant be the sin of the  son. 

His overcoming the DQ cases at Comelec even made him more popular

Who are most likely to be elected winners in 2022 Pres election

It is more fun criticizing

Before the October deadline for the  filing of COC, a lot of names have come out as Pres VP tandem:

     1.   Duterte Duterte
     2.   Pacquiao Robredo
     3.   BBM  Duterte
     4.   Ping Vic
     5.   Go Duterte   x
     6.   ____Isko Moreno
 
Is Dick Gordon running too.

Early on mud is thrown in various directions:     Du vs Isko;   Du vs.   Pacquiao,   Opposition vs Go and Du.

Today I am watching on TV the launch of Ping Vic tandem.  All ready I see repeat of demagoguery - of speeches with very vague words:    "pagbabago",  liwanag vs dilim, pag asa.   How we wish leaders can be more specific.   Most posturing are anti.  We cant go forward with anti, or backward vision.   

How we wish we can see many changes - real changes.   

But if you are not connected with the administration, you stand a slim chance of winning.  They have consolidated their foothold with the grass roots  with the barangay with the ayuda.   They shared power and php with their officials by having them handle most of the work during the  pandemic.    The senatoriables of the administration have an edge with the  use of govt media.   Those who stand to benefit are the senatoriables.   

Good luck to those  who do not have these advantages.

Most likely BBM and Du would win.     Ping, Vic, Robredo Pacquiao,, Moreno are not going to make it This is my fearless forcast.

Duterte Robredo win imminent?

It is more fun criticizing

Philippines May 8, 2016

28duterte1-620x404

As we go to the polls tomorrow to elect the Philippines 16th President, it is the fearless forecast of this writer that Duterte will be the next President of the Philippines under a clean and honest election scenario.  I thought before that it was going to be Duterte Bongbong but Bongbong was battered by the martial law campaign, the EDSA rev group about the alleged crimes ill gotten wealth of his late father.  But we would not count out Bongbong yet because, the Duterte supporters may overtue  total Robredo win.    Leni is strong because of her persona as well as because of the resources of the administration.

Binay was weakened by the Trillanes Cayetano attack at the Senate hearing.  Myriam ranks low but her health condition is her problem. We would not want to be led by a leader whose health condition is at risk.   We wonder why Roxas despite the slant the the press, the resources of the administration, the weight of his grand father's name, he could not pull through this one.  And this is his second try.

As for Trillanes attack on Duterte, it came a little bit late.  Maybe he thought that the timing was perfect because it was too late to counter attack having thrown the bomb two weeks before the election.  The trouble was BPI would not want to get the wrath of Duterte supporters and played coy in issuing its certifcation.  It was a dud

His pronouncements that a coup is imminent and that he could lead one again vs Duterte  puts a question on why he was released because he not Duterte is the really dangerous leader and man.  He should not count out the alliances of Duterte  whose party is left of center.   He promised salary increases for soldiers and policeman once elected.  He has the backing of retired general too. So the good failed putsch leader must be careful in his ranting.  It also created fear among people about Duterte. Duterte is a compassionate man  as shown by many videos and as narrated by a colleague when he was consulted by the mayor on FINANCE FOR THE COUNTRY.

Pnoy calls for Roxas Poe coalition to beat Duterte

It is more fun criticizing

Pres Aquino calls for Poe Roxas coalition


Pres Aquino asks for Rozas Poe coalition in order to defeat Duterte whom he say is a threat to democracy.  Duterte with his recent pronouncement is likely to bring back dictatorship (note he will close Congress if an impeachment would be filed vs him, cutting ties with US and Australia.).  This will negate the gains made by his mother and his reign.  If Poe and Roxas would join force (how this is to be doie - somebody would quit the race) the 40% of Poe and Roxas can beat Duterte.

Binay's camp called for free and honest election rather than calling for coalition (It was alleged that the ballots were highlighted with the administration candidates.)    Some quarter fear massive cheating to happen.

Why is the President so concerned about Duterte's win?  Dont we have enough controls vs dictatorship.?

Are his plans workable? It is too late I guess.  Even with Trillanes making an expose on alleged hidden wealth of Duterte, the hold of Duterte on his lead still remains.

Why a Presidential candidate was DQ'd? to prevent national scandal from happening

It is more fun criticizing

Rizal Philippines
February 21, 2016

No it cant be told.  We were wondering why the justices were citing the illogical reason for the DQ case of presidential candidate.  The grape vine has it that the justices do not want a national scandal.  Thus the problem has to be stopped right now.

I was informed that the honorable justices know that the said candidate was born in the US to a famous actress,  because the mother, related to a famous actress  related to a former unsuccessful presidential candidate bore the child to ____.  The mother delivered the baby abroad.  So the foundling story at Iloilo is not very true. If the story indeed is true, talagang hindi natural born Filipino citizen, even the domicile theory will not hold water. That makes her really related to a VP candidate.   If they both win, kagulo lalo.  Ano ba yan?

If the justices were to disclose this to the public this is a scandal and would harm:  the candidate, her family -  husband and children and her followers.  The family of the real father (who is a historical figure) and taint the picture of the Philippines with scandal. (if she gets elected) So why hang the dirty linen.

So with this I kept quiet about supporting the candidacy of the said person, and stopped questioning the DQ or petition not to give due course.  The Comelec is right and so with the justices who voted for the DQ

From where we are, we really are not aware of the truth
