		<description>Amen, Amen, and Amen.

That is what we are all hoping for.

Let us all pray for it to happen - to elect a President who can reverse the life style of corruption in the Philippines.

Let us all pray that our hopes will be granted by acting on our prayers.

Let us all act on our prayers by not selling our votes, but by safe-guarding our ballots from the time we drop them in the ballot box to the time they are counted.

Let us all act on our prayers by safe-guarding that all our government agencies from the Barangay Council to the Executive, Legislative, &amp; Judiciary Branches of our government do the right thing for the country and its people.

Let us all act on our prayers by participating in the making of decisions by our leaders to keep them from becoming &quot;lidders&quot; who just want to lift the lid of our country&#039;s treasury and selfishly abuse their power, keeping us from becoming one nation.

By acting on our prayers we will be exercising our individual rights to true &quot;People Power&quot; that can overcome all odds, giving hope to the hopeless and food for the hungry.</description>

		<description>Ramon del Rosario&#039;s credentials are above board.  His choice of Nonoy Aquino as his candidate in next year&#039;s elections is a personal choice and must be respected. However, the Nation is in a mess on account of the present set of &quot;Rulers&quot;. Our economy and social order are in a mess. The Elites in the inner sanctum of Philippine society (The Ruling class who call the shots) have always promised &#039;changes/improvements in their &quot;Governments&quot; every election. But since the departure of the American Liberation forces from our shores sometime in 1946, our Elitist Leaders, with the exception of a few, never implemented nor complied with their &#039;Election Promises&quot; . The Central Government in Manila governed our Nation not as leaders with good intentions, but as the &quot;Periodic Goons&quot; whose motives were always to enrich themselves in office without regard for the common good. 

Now comes, a personality whose inducement to be the leader of this forsaken country, did not come from an iota of good intentions on his part, but from &quot;People around him&quot; who wants power of the purse, power to legislate, power to push their way in the nooks and corners of society where money can be had, and power to manipulate the idiots (forgive my term) who elect them into power and pelf. Aquino as an individual is honest, a goody-goody, and can even be trusted with one&#039;s wife,(to carry his good character far enough). But we need a real leader who can manage the affairs of government with integrity, whose experience in the field of business and entrepreneurship is a factor to bring this Nation into the 21st century economy. Any family baggage a candidate carries that remain unresolved is a burden to good governance. It may not be his intentions, but the negative perceptions will continue to haunt him in every turn. Labor and Industry are but two of the many facets of concerns of a Leader, a President. And a candidate who cannot resolved the conflict and problems in his own family, can not be expected to manage and lead this country into the 21st century. Let&#039;s not kid ourselves all over and over again. Philippine society is in a mess. We can not afford to miss the opportunity to be released from &quot;Bondage&quot;- bondage from social derelicts who claim to be God&#039;s chosen ones. The danger of social unrest in this country is real and very imminent where even today, crimes of every description are already a daily occurrence. Let&#039;s not think of ourselves, but for the generation that will come after us.

God bless the Philippines.</description>

		<description>Nonoy has yet to show his moral ascendancy vis a vis Hacienda Luisita dispute. If he calls for the distribution of land to farmers, I might consider him. If he fails to settle this before May elections, I doubt if farmers will be serious in voting him.</description>
